Want this question answered?
Generally, things that feel cold to touch (in a normal temperature room and no heating applied to them) are good conductors of heat (metals for example). Poor conductors tend to feel neither hot or cold under normal conditions (wood for example).
Generally speaking, materials that are good conductors of heat are good conductors of electricity. But there is a notable exception. Diamond, an allotrope of carbon, conducts heat better than any metal, but it is an electrical insulator.
Good conductors have low resistance
They are good electrical conductors.
Good Electrical conductors: All metals, ionic substances (in solution or molten form) Bad Electrical conductors: Water Good Heat conductors: All Metals Bad Heat Conductors: Water

Metals are good conductors. Some non-metals are good conductors, but many others are not.
Metals are actually good conductors of both heat and electricity... but silicon is a semi-conductor. Unlike metals, which are good electrical and heat conductors, crystalline solids such as diamond and semiconductors such as silicon are good heat conductors but poor electrical conductors. This is their nature... you can't change it :-)
Glass and rubber are not good conductors of electricity.
Good conductors have low resistance
They are good electrical conductors.
good conductors are better emitters
Metals are good conductors of electricity, two of the best conductors are silver and copper.

Sulfur is a nonmetal. Nonmetals are bad conductors, while metals are good conductors. Since sulfur is a bad conductors, it is a good insulator.
