Is neon the best electrical conductor?
The best electrical conductor is silver, followed by copper. Gases can be made to conduct well when they're ionized.
What object is a conductor?
An object which is a conductor can conduct (or transfer) heat or electricity. Every single metal is a conductor (that is why mercury is considered a metal, because it conducts). A saucepan is made of metal because it can transfer the heat well. Other than a "super-conductor" which can only be made in laboratories, Gold is the best conductor, followed by silver then copper. We use copper for electrical wires because gold and silver are too expensive.
How Molybdenum is electrical conductor or electrical insulator?
It is a conductor.
Why is electrical conductor important?
The electrical conductor is important because it transfers electricity from one point to another.
Is krypton the best conductor of electricity?
No, krypton is not a good conductor of electricity. It is a noble gas and is categorized as an insulator. It does not easily allow the flow of electric charge through it.
Is neon the best electrical conductor?
The best electrical conductor is silver, followed by copper. Gases can be made to conduct well when they're ionized.
Why is copper wire the best known conductor?
The best electrical conductor known is silver, not copper. Electrical resistivity of silver: 1,59.10-8 ohm.m Electrical resistivity of copper: 1,68.10-8 ohm.m A good electrical conductor has a very low electrical resistivity and a high electrical conductivity (the same principles for the thermal conductivity).
What chemical element is the best electrical conductor?
Gold and Silver
What matrial is a good electrical conductor?
Silver is the best electrical conductor. Copper is second. Gold is third. Aluminum is a good conductor but not for house wiring. It is used for high tension wires.
Is metal a good electrical conductor?
Metals are indeed good conductors. Silver, which is a metal, is the best conductor.

How Molybdenum is electrical conductor or electrical insulator?
It is a conductor.
What type of metal is the best electrical conductor but is not used in wire?
silver
Why is gold used in a cell phone?
It is the 3rd best electrical conductor
Is gold a conductor?
Yes gold is. It is because it is a metal object. Silver is the best conductor while a lot of gold can conductor awesomely.
Is gold the best electrical conductor?
No, gold is not the best conductor. At room temperature, silver is a slightly better conductor. The best electrical conductors are the so-called superconductors, which are materials that only exhibit the property of superconductivity at very low (cryogenic) temperatures. When exhibiting the property of superconductivity, they have a resistance of zero.
Which would be the best insulator carbon or silicon or aluminum or oxygen?
Oxygen. Carbon as diamond is a good electrical insulator, (graphite is an electrical conductor), silicon is a semiconductor so has limited electrical conductivity and aluminium is a metal and a good electrical conductor.
