What property of metals make them good conductors of heat?
their mobile electrons
Which property of metals make them good conductors of heat?
Their mobile electrons
What materials make a good thermal conductor?
The best element at conducting heat is silver, followed by copper, gold, and aluminum. Nevertheless, diamonds are two to five times as good at conducting heat as copper, and graphene is twice as good as diamonds. (No, I am not making this up; please see the link below.)
What are three materials that make good conductors?
Copper, aluminum and gold.
Why transition elements are used to make pans?
Metals are used to create pans because they are excellent conductors, and the heat will be transferred quickly to whatever you are cooking.

Why do metal often make good conductors?
They contain delocalised electrons which can move and carry charge.
Why is metals good conductors?
Metal is a great conductor because of the material used to make it. Go to Metal.com to help.
What two properties of metal make them useful materials for the electrical wiring at home?
Mainly, metals are extremely good conductors of electricity, compared to most other materials.
What is an explanation of the characteristic's of metals?
Some properties of metals are: they are good heat conductors, they have a high melting point, they react with oxygen to make oxides, all metals, but mercury, are solid at room temperatures, they are positive when they form ions, they have a high density.Metals are usually shiny, malleable, and hard. They also are good conductors of electricity.
Why do conductors conduct electricity while insulaters don't?
Conductors conduct electricity because most of them are made of metals and metals are good conductors of electricity while insulators are made of rubber and rubber does not conduct electricity. To conduct electricity, the atoms that make up the material, have to have free electrons that can pass a charge on. Metals have these free electrons, whereas insulators do not.
What are elements that are shiny malleable ductile good conductors of heat and electricity and make up most of the periodic table?
Those are metals.
What are Elements that are shiny malleable ductile good conductors of heat and electricity and make up most of the periodic table are?
Those are metals.
Why metals good electrical conductors?
In their regular (lattice) structure, metals have a sea of free electrons. This allows the electrons to flow through the metal at will and this is what makes metals good conductors of electricity (and heat).Their mobile electrons
Uses of metals and non-metals?
Used as insulating material around wire cables since they do not conduct electricity. Used to make pan handles as they are poor conductors of heat. Used to make pan handles as they are poor conductors of heat.
