Copper cables are reputed to carry electricity well.
Something that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal...conductor. If it does not conduct well it is called an insulator.
A conductor, that conducts heat or energy well
All elements will conduct heat to some extent. metals conduct heat and electricity the best; metalliods conduct heat and electricity good too but not as good as metals. nonmetals are poor conductors.
Electrical energy transformed into Thermal energy (heat) and Mechanical energy (sound)
Well object that use electrical energy are ,lamps ,phones, TV, power tools and many more
It means that material conducts electricity well
Something that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal...conductor. If it does not conduct well it is called an insulator.
a conductor does, while an insulator poorly conducts thermal energy!
A material that doesn't conduct heat well is called an insulator.
An insulator is a material that does not conduct well, so an electrical insulator is a material that does not conduct electricity well. A metal is a bad electrical insulator as it has delocalised electrons, therefore conducts electricity, but most plastics and materials like rubber do not conduct electricity, so they are good electrical insulators. Hope that makes sense and helps? :3AnswerAn insulator is a material with insufficient free charge carriers to support conduction.
A material with a good thermal conductivity or a thermal conductor.

This element is a metalloid as it has properties (dull but conducts electrical current) from both metals and non-metals.
semiconductor
Each material or compound has its own electrical properties that determine how well it conducts electricity. This has something to do with the free electrons in its chemical composition. But there are tables that rate every material from those that are good insulators(resist electrical current) and those that are good conductors of electricity.
