What properties most nonmetals shared?
Examples: low thermal and electrical conductivity, low hardness, they are brittle, low melting and boiling points, some are liquids or gases, low density etc.
What are three non-metal properties?
bad conducter of heat bad conducter of electricity not reflective not bendable not mallable enough for you?
Which conductivity of water is better Either low conductivity of water is better or high conductivity of water is better?
Low conductivity is better if you don't want electricity to pass. High conductivity is better if you do want electricity to pass. Also, water itself is actually an insulator (very low conductivity) but the impurities in water can be great conductors. Pure water will stop electric flow, but it is very difficult (outside of a lab) to get truly pure water.
If wood has very low conductivity does it still have low conductivity if it is very hot?
Yes, increasing the temperature of an insulator is not likely to make it more electrically conductive. Resistance generally increases as temperature increases. Some materials conduct electricity better when they are very cold, however.
Is Petroleum jelly electrically conductive?
yes but very low electrical conductivity.

Why alloys have low conductivity?
Alloys doesn't have a low conductivity.
Is metal low conductivity?
No, metals have high conductivity but has low resistivity.
Is the flammibillity and conductivity high or low for tin?
its a high flammibillity and low conductivity
Does sodium have high or low electrical conductivity?
The electric conductivity is 0.139 10 to the 6th power per centimeter. Therefore the conductivity of potassium is low.
Does copper possess high or low thermal conductivity?
Copper has a high thermal conductivity, not low. This is a good generalization of any metal, although they vary in conductivity.
To be effective a pot holder should have low Conductivity malleability density or viscosity?
An effective potholder has density and low conductivity.

Do elements that have high electric conductivity also have high thermal conductivity?
Usually it is, but exceptional case is of Graphite which has low thermal conductivity.
What items contain gold?
Currency, jewelry, medicine, electronics, liquors, food. It is used in electronics because its high conductivity and low susceptibility to corrosion. It is used in currency, jewelry, food, and liquors because of its relatively rare availability. It is used in medicine for its conductivity.
Why does methanol alcohol have low conductivity?
it does not ionize
