What else can I help you with?
What is the only non metal that is a good electrical conductor?
Carbon in the form of graphite is used as an electrical conductor (the brushes in electric motors)
The only non metal that is a good electrical conductor?
water
Is a nonconductor a metal or non metal?
Almost everything is a good conductor of sound, but a conductor of heat and electricity are usually only metals. A nonmetal can be an insulator, or something that doesn't conduct things, for heat and electricity.
Is copper a good conductor of heat and electricity?
yes copper is a good conductor of heat only becuase it comes in the conductor of heat
Is brass a insulator of electricity?
it is a conductor but its electrical conductivity is only 28%as conducive as copper.
Is oxygen a poor conductor of electricity?
Yes, oxygen is a poor conductor of electricity. Oxygen is a nonmetal element that does not readily carry electrical charge in its natural state. Only ions or charged particles in oxygen-containing compounds can conduct electricity.
Why copper important?
because it has good heating conditions Copper is a very good conductor of electricity (second best only to silver) and affordable for construction of electrical instillations.
Is gold cunductor of heat or electricity?
Gold is a good thermal conductor (looks like only copper and silver are better - see engineeringtoolbox dot com) Gold is also a good electrical conductor. Copper and silver are a little better, though.
Is a pencil an insulator or conductor of electricity?
Note: "electricity" is not conducted, only electrical current (the flow of electrons) is. Electricity is the field that covers all things electrical. The wood in a pencil is an insulator. If it is wet, it is a poorer insulator, but only a poor conductor. The carbon (lead) in the pencil is a poor conductor. The metal holding the eraser is a good conductor. The rubber eraser is a poor conductor. You really have to address the conductivity of specific substances, not items that are build from a variety of substances.
Is sodium a better electrical conductor than francium?
Yes, sodium is a better electrical conductor than francium. This is because sodium has one valence electron that can easily move and carry electrical charge, whereas francium has only one valence electron that is trapped in an inner shell by its atomic structure, making it less available for electrical conduction.
What will only produce magnetism when current is flowing through it?
Any electrical conductor only will. Ah! You're fishing for "electromagnet".
Is rutherfordium an electrical conductor?
This is very probable but it is impossible to test because we have only some atoms available.
