What metal has lowest thermal conductivity?

Mercury, apparently Bismuth has the lowest thermal condctivity of metals that are solid at room temperature.


Would glass iron wood or Styrofoam have the lowest thermal conductivity?

Styrofoam would have the lowest thermal conductivity among these materials. It is a good insulator because it is made up of mostly trapped air bubbles that restrict the transfer of heat. Glass, iron, and wood have higher thermal conductivities compared to Styrofoam.


Is thermal conductivity a chemical or a physical?

Thermal conductivity is a Physical property


What is osmium thermal conductivity?

Osmium thermal conductivity is 87,4 W/m.K.


Which type of cup has better insulation?

A Styrofoam cup has the best type of insulation. These are better cups because they have the lowest thermal conductivity.


What is the thermal and electrical conductivity of Californium?

The thermal conductivity of californium is 1 W/m.K.


Do sulfur nitrogen phosphorus and bromine have the same thermal conductivity?

These elements have quite different physical characteristics. At normal temperatures and pressures, nitrogen is a gas, sulfur and phosphorus are solid, and bromine is a liquid. Nitrogen, in a gaseous state, is far less thermally conductive than the others.


What is the thermal conductivity for maltose?

The thermal conductivity of maltose is approximately 0.55 W/m*K.


What is used to describe how well various substances conduct thermal energy?

thermal conductivity The term for how substances conduct thermal energy is thermal conductivity.


What is thermal and electrical conductiuity?

Thermal conductivity is the ability of a material to conduct heat, while electrical conductivity is the ability to conduct electricity. Materials with high thermal conductivity can transfer heat quickly, while those with high electrical conductivity allow electricity to flow easily. Both properties are important in various applications, such as in electronics and thermal management.


Do elements that have high electric conductivity also have high thermal conductivity?

Not necessarily. While there is some correlation between electrical and thermal conductivity in metals, there are exceptions. For example, diamond is a good thermal insulator despite being a good electrical insulator. Additionally, materials like ceramics can have low electrical conductivity but high thermal conductivity.


What term is used to describe how well various conduct thermal energy?

thermal conductivity The term for how substances conduct thermal energy is thermal conductivity.
