Is a good heat conductor a metal or nonmetal?
Metal
Does metal conduct heat readily?
Metal does indeed conduct heat readily. Metal also conducts electricity. The conductive properties of metal are due to the free electrons in metal atoms that allow for mobile charge.
Why is it safer to use a nonmetal spoon when cooking something on the stove?
It is safer to use...say a wooden spoon instead of a metal spoon because metal is a heat conductor...or when metal touches heat the heat goes through the metal (it does the same with electricity). There is a simple answer for it!
Why is a base of a scaucepan made of metal?
It is made of metal because metal is the best conductor of heat.
Do alloys produce heat resistance?
Alloys can add heat resistance to a metal
Is heat non metal or metal?
i think it is metal
Will the metal ball go through the metal ring if you heat the metal ring?
yes because when you heat a metal ring it will expand
How can heat burn through metal?
After the heat source exceeds the melting point of the metal, by nature the metal will melt.
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.
How does the heat get in to the metal spoon?
since metal is a good conductor of heat, it absorbs the heat and the spoon increases the temperature
Metals are conductors of heat does this mean metal wont get hot?
Since metals are conductors of heat, that means heat can be transferred to the metal, thus the metal does get hot.
How does metal react to heat?
Heat makes a metal expand. If you take a metal ball and an metal loop that the ball fits in and then heat the ball and try to put it back in the loop it will not go back through. :)
Does leaving a metal spoon in a hot drink make it cool faster?
the spoon is metal and metal conducts heat , if you put a metal spoon in a drink the drink will retain the heat but if you take it out it's like your taking a whole lot of heat, in other words a metal spoon is like a magnet of heat it you remove the spoon it will remove heat but if you keep it in the heat will stay.shoraye khatter.
Why does metal heat up fast?
Because it is a heat conductor and have a greater heat capacity
How does an electric heater give out heat?
by fire . an electric heater is a metal, and a metal is a good conductor of heat. so it can produce heat
Why do manufacturers heat treat metal?
Manufacturers heat treat metal for a variety of reason. One reason is to alter the physical appearance of the metal. Another reason is to harden the metal. They may even heat treat the metal in order to soften the metal to make it more malleable.
In most cases heat flows from where?
metal to metal
