The name of an object which conducts heat or electricity?
Metals which have free valence electrons conduct electricity and heat. thus they are good conductors.
The name of an object that reduces the passage of heat electricity or sound is?
electric circuit
What object conducts heat or electricity?
The blunt answer is that ALL materials can potentially conduct heat and electricity (metals, air, water, human bodies, cloth, wood, even rubber, etc), but require the right conditions. A GOOD conductor is one that can transmit heat or electricity or both VERY EASILY under standard temperature/pressure conditions. There are many, many GOOD conductors out there and too numerous to name on this answer board.
What is the name of a substance that conducts heat and electricity poorly and is brittle and is waxy or gaseous and cannot be hammered into thin sheets of metal?
insulator; I think porcelain.hopefully.
What is the name for an electrical load that converts electrical energy into light?
If your meaning what carries electricity to an electrical object then the answer is electrons. Electrons are like parcels, they carry electricity to the object to make it work

What is the name of something that has luster and is malleable and conducts electricity?
Copper
What general name is given to substances that conduct electricity in a solution?
A Liquid that conducts electricity and is decomposed in the process is called electrolyte.
Does gold conduct heat and electricity?
Yes, gold conducts electricity. In fact, it's an excellent electrical conductor. Coupled with its resistance to corrosion, it finds broad use in modern electronics, to name just one application.
What do you call solids that conduct electricity?
A substance that conducts electricity is a conductor. There is no special name for one that is solid; if you need to specify that it is solid, just call it a "solid conductor".
Name an allotrope of a non-metal which allows electricity to pass through it?
Graphite which is a crystalline allotrope of carbon conducts electricity because of the presence of free mobile electrons occassioned by their planar structure.
What is the name for an electrical load that converts electrical energy into light?
If your meaning what carries electricity to an electrical object then the answer is electrons. Electrons are like parcels, they carry electricity to the object to make it work
What is the name for a stationary electrical charge which builds up an insulated object?
Static Electricity.
