What else can I help you with?
Is conductors of heat and conductors of electricity the same thing?
Sometimes. Metals will conduct both heat and electricity. Glass will conduct heat but not electricity.
Which substance are usually good conductors of heat and electricity?
Metals are usually good conductors of heat and electricity.
Metals are conductors of heat and electricity?
Yes, but some metals are better conductors than others.
Are poor conductors of heat poor conductors of electricity?
Yes.
Good conductors of heat and electricity?
Metals such as copper, silver, and aluminum are good conductors of heat and electricity due to their free-moving electrons that can carry both heat and electrical charges efficiently. Additionally, materials like gold and iron are also good conductors of both heat and electricity.
What distinguishes nonmetals from metals?
metals are shiny and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are dull and poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Why conductors conduct heat and electricity while insulators are known as poor conductors?
Conductors conduct heat and electricity well because they have delocalised electrons in their structure. Insulators, on the other hand, do not have delocalised electrons and therefore do not conduct heat and electricity as a conductor, although they do conduct to some extent.
Good conductors of electricity are often good conductors of heat?
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.
What material does not allow light to pass through is a good conductor of heat but not a good conductor of electricity?
Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity. Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity.
Is a poor conductors of electricity and heat?
yes
What are nonmetal that are conductors of heat and electricity?
Semiconductors
Is it all conductors of heat that conduct electricity?
no
