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.


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.


Is it all conductors of heat that conduct electricity?

no

What are metals and other materials that transfer heat and electricity easily called?

They are called conductors. Metals such as copper and aluminum are good conductors of heat and electricity, whereas materials like rubber and wood are insulators, meaning they do not conduct heat and electricity easily.


Do gold teeth conduct heat?

Yes, gold and gold alloys are good conductors of heat and electricity.


What are the best mediums to conduct electricity?

The best mediums to conduct electricity are metals like copper, silver, and gold due to their high conductivity properties. Other good conductors include aluminum, iron, and graphite. materials like rubber, plastic, and glass are insulators and do not conduct electricity.


Are non metals good conductors of both heat and electricity?

No. I've done an experiment and they do not conduct electricity very well.


What are some poor conductors of heat?

Poor conductors of heat are generally also poor conductors of electricity. These would include most gases, ceramics and man-made plastics. A vacuum will not conduct heat either.
