copper
Steel is a highly conductive metal, but it is not as conductive as metals like copper and silver. Copper and silver are better conductors of electricity compared to steel.
Brass has better conduction than stainless steel. being roughly 65 percent copper which is one of the best conductors (thermal and electrical)
Examples: stainless steel, zircalloy-4.

I would think heat conveys much like electricity, the greater the number of "free' electrons the less resistance to the heat , therefore copper would be faster then the other three choices.
No, steel is generally heavier than brass. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon with a density greater than that of brass, which is an alloy of copper and zinc.
Yes, brass is cheaper than copper.
No, they are both copper based. Copper and steel cause the problem.

I believe the Chinese invented brass in ancient china when they mixed copper and steel
Copper is amongst the most thermally conductive material on the market. In most cases, copper is too hot for most cooking purposes, which is why aluminum and stainless steel are more popular.
