Insulators are usually plastics, and conductors are usually metal.
for electricity:
Insulators:
Bowl (plastic), tupperware containers, plastic utensils, formica or granite countertop, plastic microwave or oven handle, spatulas, stone-sinks
Conductors:
egg beaters/whisk, metal knives, metal flippers for burgers, sink faucet, metal bowls, metal utensils (silverware)
for heat:
insulators: plastics, porous items (*sponges), -your entire refrigerator-
conductor: metals, stone countertops, glass (the glass measuring cups come to mind, the ones you put boiling water in)

Are scissors conductors?
They are Conductors, not much for insulation though. Differences between conductors and insulators? Conductors let energy such as electricity .
Which has a higher resistance insulators or conductors?
No, the resistance of an insulator is very high.
Are train tracks conductors or insulators?
The rails are good conductors The wooden ties they rest on are insulators
Are all insulators and conductors solids?
No, most gases are good insulators. Fluids can be good conductors. Mercury is normally a liquid and is a good conductor.
Are insulators good conductor of heat?
Insulators are the complete opposite of conductors. Insulators insulate the heat, but conductors let it pass straight through.
Why aren't insulators good conductors of electricity?
because insulators don't conduct any electricity but conductors do conduct electricity
Are metals conductors or insulators?
In general, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
Are humans conductors or insulators?
humans are not insulators, but are conductors!
Materials that are not good conductors or and not good insulators are called?
Semiconductor
Are insulators dull brittle and poor conductors?
Insulators are conductors
What are good conductors called?
They're called conductors. As opposed to insulators, which don't conduct. Metals are typically pretty good conductors.
Which appliance uses good electrical conductors and insulators?
Wired
Are conductors good insulation materials?
No, insulators and non conductive.
What materials make the best conductors and insulators?
Conductors- Most types of metal. Copper and Aluminium are used these days. Silver is a very good conductor but it is expensive. Insulators- rubber, plastic and wood are good insulators in the solid state.
