Most of the metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Exception to this rule is silver and copper. Spoons made out of silver and copper pans used in cooking does not conduct heat easily.

∙ 13y agoMetals, by definition, are good conductors of electricity because of the large number of valence electrons which are free to move in an 'electron sea' around the metal lattice. As such, there are no metals that are poor conductors of electricity (that is, no metal is an insulator).

Will a metal cup or a styrofoam cup keep the hot water warm after a short time?
It is the Styrofoam cup as it is not a good conductor of heat but the metal cup is a good conductor of heat.
Witch metal conducts heat best?
Silver is the best metallic conductor of heat but when it comes to elements, diamond (carbon) is the best heat conductor.
Is a metal gauze a good conductor of heat?
A Metal Guaze doesn't allow heat 2 pass though so its an insulator / poor conductor of heat.

A conductor of heat if it is made of metal.
Is silver a heat insulator or a heat conductor?
I think it is a conductor because it is a metal.
What metal is the best conductor of heat energy?
Metal
Is a good heat conductor a metal or nonmetal?
Metal
Do not conduct heat easily?
Wood is not a conductor of heat and so is plastic whereas metal is the perfect conductor for heat
