A material that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal?
Something that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal...conductor. If it does not conduct well it is called an insulator.
What is used to describe how well various substances conduct thermal energy?
thermal conductivity The term for how substances conduct thermal energy is thermal conductivity.
What term is used to describe how well various conduct thermal energy?
thermal conductivity The term for how substances conduct thermal energy is thermal conductivity.
Why do insulators not conduct electricity well?
In insulators the bond energy between atoms in the material they form is very high. We need to give large energy to overcome that bond energy and set free the electrons. As electrons are not freely available It doesnt conduct well. There's a kind of circularity in the question. Anything that doesn't conduct electricity for any reason is called an insulator. So any substance where the electrons are too tightly bound to atoms and cannot migrate is called an insulator. Anything that manages to let electrons migrate wouldn't be called an insulator.
Material that conducts thermal energy well?
All elements will conduct heat to some extent. metals conduct heat and electricity the best; metalliods conduct heat and electricity good too but not as good as metals. nonmetals are poor conductors.
Does Aluminium conduct thermal energy?
Yes, very well.
How well does chlorine conduct electricity and heat?
it doesnt
Does copper conduct thermal energy?
Gold and copper are good thermal and electrical coductors.

Do bananas conduct electricity?
Not very well.
Why dont ionic compounds not conduct electricity well?
Yes, they do conduct very well electricity (double negative is positive!)
What l does not conduct very well?
lead Lagging.
Do simple molecular substances conduct electricity?
Most molecular substances do not conduct electricity since the ions don't dissociate very well with molecular substances. However, most ionic substances do conduct electricity very well due to their ability to dissociate very well in water.
Is the element element conduct eletricity?
only metal elements conduct electricity, and they do it very well
Do liquids conduct heat well?
no, metal is the best heat && energy conductor.
