Is vanadium a good electrical conductor?
Vanadium has slightly less resisitivity than lead, but approximately 11 times that of copper. It is not normally used as an electrical conductor, but is used in redox flow batteries and certain semiconductor applications.
What is copper used for as an electrical conductor?
Wires.
Is lead conductor?
Lead has high resistivity of current. So , lead is not conduct current. But lead has low resistivity of heat and it conduct heat..
What matrial is a good electrical conductor?
Silver is the best electrical conductor. Copper is second. Gold is third. Aluminum is a good conductor but not for house wiring. It is used for high tension wires.
Is mercury a better conductor of heat than glass?
No, it is not. The best thermal conductor among the metals is silver, and it is the best electrical conductor as well. There is a general "rule" in the natural world that thermal and electrical conductivity are proportionate among metals; they "track" together. If a metal is a better thermal conductor than another metal, it will be a better electrical conductor as well. It should be noted that the best thermal conductor of all known materials is the allotrope of carbon we call diamond. Interestingly, diamond is an electrical insulator.
What is the only non metal that is a good electrical conductor?
Carbon in the form of graphite is used as an electrical conductor (the brushes in electric motors)
What type of metal is the best electrical conductor but is not used in wire?
silver
Why copper is most widely used metal in electrical application?
Because it is a good conductor of electricity.
Is metal is a good conductor of electicity?
Metal is the best conductor of electricity with respect to machinery and electrical wiring in building structures. Copper is perhaps the most common metal used in such instances. Gold is often used in micro-electronics. While it is much more expensive, it is a better conductor. Not that much gold is needed in micro-electronics.
Is vanadium a good electrical conductor?
Vanadium has slightly less resisitivity than lead, but approximately 11 times that of copper. It is not normally used as an electrical conductor, but is used in redox flow batteries and certain semiconductor applications.
Can copper wire would be a good conductor of electricity?
i sure hope so. copper is the most common metal used for electrical circuits.
Is Mercury a conductor or an insulator of electricity?
Mercury is a fair conductor of electricity , although it is a poor conductor of heat.
What is copper used for as an electrical conductor?
Wires.
Is silver an electrical conductor?
Silver is very good conductor of electricity. It is better electrical conductor than copper. Silver is not commonly used as it is much expensive element.
What is heat conductor used for?
Its used to transfer heat into electrical signal
Is lead conductor?
Lead has high resistivity of current. So , lead is not conduct current. But lead has low resistivity of heat and it conduct heat..
