Diethyl ether does not dissove in ether at room temperature
At room temperature, silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all the (known) metals. Note that diamond, an allotrope of carbon, is a poor electrical conductor but is several times better as a thermal conductor than silver. Carbon is a nonmetal, of course, but it was worth mentioning as both a comparison and a curiousity.
Intrinsic semiconductors have small conductivity at the room temperature. and also if we raise the temperature to increase their conductivity then they will start acting merely like a conductor. and there will not be any control over the directions or the magnitude of the current flowing through it. so by mixing the suitable impurity(dopant) we obtain the extrinsic semiconductor. so that the conductivity as well as the control over the current can be increased. Although intrinsic semiconductor are also somwhere used in electronics where i high resistance layers or a separation layers b/t two systems is needed. like in PIN diode.
room temperature
The reason for this very behaviour of metals is explained by the fact that at random, the free electrons moving in a metallic object (say wire) also collide with the atoms contained in the wire. Due to these collisions, their kinetic energy is wasted to some extent. When the temperature of such a metallic wire is increased, their collisions with the containing atoms become more frequent and ultimately more energy is wasted. This obviously reduce their thermal and electrical conductivity.
At room temperature, n-hexane is a liquid.
Hexane is in the liquid state at room temperature. The melting point of hexane is -94 degrees C. The boiling point of hexane is 69.1 degrees C.
Diethyl ether does not dissove in ether at room temperature
no, because it is a gas but a solid at room temp.
Copper at room temperature (300K) is 5.8e7 [1/Ohm/m]. 304 SST at room temperature (300K) is 9.8e5 [1/Ohm/m]. This pdf lists resistivity=1/conductivity of various materials as functions of temperature, mostly cryogenic temperatures: http://materialdatabase.magnet.fsu.edu/CryoDatahandBook/Section10.pdf
There is nothing that says a metal has to be a solid at room temperature. Mercury exhibits pretty much all of the properties one would expect from a metal (shine/luster, reactivity, electrical conductivity, etc.) which are manifestations of its position in the periodic table.
The temperature. Also, thermal conductivity.
Think in terms of room temperature. Hexane is a liquid that is flammable, but is used in cleaning solvents and stuff like around the garage. Propane is the gas that comes in a steel bottle that you use for gas stoves and barbeque grills. So if you let propane out into the room its a gas and so it already past its boiling point. So the boiling point of Hexane is hotter than room temperature and the boiling point of propane is lower than room temperature. The actual numbers are 69 C and -42 C.
The best electrical-conducting materials are various superconductors, which display zero resistivity, or in other words perfect conductivity. Since about 1993, the highest-temperature superconductor known has been a ceramic material consisting of thallium, mercury, copper, barium, calcium and oxygen (HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ) which is superconducting below 138 K. Several allotropes of carbon seem to share the palm for the highest electrical conductivity at room temperature. Graphene is one. Carbon nanotubes in the direction along the tube another. The known material with the highest thermal conductivity is a supercooled form of liquid helium: helium II The known material with the highest thermal conductivity at room temperature is graphene.
At room temperature water is a liquid. You can observe (or measure) density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, refractive index etc.
The thermal conductivity of hafnium is 23 W/m.K at room temperature.
It has to do with intermolecular forces holding the molecules together. Both ethane and hexane are hydrocarbons, so the only intermolecular forces at work are dispersion forces. There are more/greater dispersion forces in hexane than in ethane because there are more carbon atoms. This stronger force makes it harder for the molecules to became a gas and keeps them as a liquid until heat is applied, then it can vaporize.
