it is because of the mobile electron pool. due to this electron arrangement metal ions are so closely packed, when one end is heated the ions in that end vibrate.this results the neighbouring ions to vibrate one by one. thus thru vibration heat is carried from one end to the other. since such an arrangement is found only in metals,metals are good thermal conductors..

Is a coin a condutor or insulators?
A coin is made of metal, and like all metals would be a good conductor of both heat and electricity.
Is metal a condutor of heat?
Metals have delocalised electrons in their outer electron orbits which can move to conduct electricity and heat.
What condutor made of?
Usually a metal.
What does condutor mean?
A substance or body that can allow electricity heat
Is good heat conductor a metal?
If you mean, is metal a good conductor of heat, yes. That is one of the characteristics of a metal.
Is copper a good condutor of heat?
Any metal substance is a good conductor of head and electricity. Therefore, yes, it is a good conductor of heat. It is also malleable. That is why there are copper wires in existence.

Are carbon good conductor of heat?
no its is only condutor of eletricity
What is a condutor of?
A good conductor of electricity is metal. There are other things like water that are good conductors of electricity.
What condutor made of?
Usually a metal.
Is neon a good condutor of electricity?
no. neon is a non metal and have completely filled electron configuration and is an insulator
Is a trumpet a condutor or an insulator?
Yes, what is given above is right. Trumpet is a good conductor of heat.
Why is copper a good conductor of heat?
Copper, like most metals, is a good condutor of heat due to Metallic Bonding and the fact that it's Valence electrons are loosely arranged.
Which is the best condutor of heat copper or aluminum?
Copper
What does condutor mean?
A substance or body that can allow electricity heat
Is salt a good condutor of heat?
The thermal conductivity of sodium chloride is 6,5 W/m.K at 25 0C. This is a modest value.
