Sea water has the best electrical conductivity. Ions from the salt can conduct electricity - but not very well.

Does conduction Happen better in metals or plastics?

Electrical conduction in metals nearly always (you can have conducting polymers keep in mind)


Is sodium a better electrical conductor than francium?

Yes, sodium is a better electrical conductor than francium. This is because sodium has one valence electron that can easily move and carry electrical charge, whereas francium has only one valence electron that is trapped in an inner shell by its atomic structure, making it less available for electrical conduction.


What is conduction conduction?

There are two kinds of conduction: thermal conduction and electrical conduction.In thermal conduction, thermal energy (heat) transfers through a substance from a hotter region toward a cooler region. For example, when you dip a metal spoon into a cup of tea, the heat from the hot tea will conduct along the spoon so that the handle becomes warm, even though the handle is not in direct contact with the hot tea.In electrical conduction, free electrons pass through a substance, thus enabling an electric current.Some materials are better conductors than others. Most metals are good thermal conductors, and certain metals (copper, aluminum) are very good electrical conductors. When a material is an exceptionally poor conductor, we call it an insulator. Styrofoam is a good thermal insulator, and glass is a good electrical insulator.


In a corrosive environment where a conductive metal is required is brass or stainless steel better?

Brass has better conduction than stainless steel. being roughly 65 percent copper which is one of the best conductors (thermal and electrical)


What water is better distilled or purifed for your diet?

Purified


Do plants grow better in tap or distilled water?

Plants generally grow better in tap water as it contains minerals that are beneficial for their growth. Distilled water lacks these minerals that plants need, so using it exclusively may lead to nutrient deficiencies and affect plant growth.


Which unit describes the difference in conduction between the wires?

The unit that describes the difference in conduction between wires is typically the electrical conductivity or resistivity, which is measured in Siemens per meter or Ohm meters, respectively. This value indicates how well a material conducts electricity, with higher values indicating better conduction and lower values indicating higher resistance to the flow of electricity.


How do you use 'conduction' in a sentence?

It was finally determined that moving electrons made up electric current, and copper and other metals could provide a path of conduction for that current. The copper on the bottom of the pot provided for an increased ability to support thermal conduction across the cooking surface of the vessel.


Is ok to use well water in a battery?

It's better than nothing, but ideally it should be distilled water. This has less minerals and particles.It's better than nothing, but ideally it should be distilled water. This has less minerals and particles.


Is electrical and electronics engineering better than electrical engineering?

NO, EEE is better then the electrical engineer


What relationship did you observe between the conductivity of a solution and how easily the salt dissolved in it?

The conductivity of a solution is directly related to how easily the salt dissolved in it. Higher conductivity indicates better salt dissolution, as the ions from the salt are more freely moving in the solution, allowing for better electrical conduction.


Can guppies survive in distilled water?

Guppies can survive in distilled water. Distilled water is even better because it has minerals to help the guppies stay healthier. But some of the minerals can harm the guppies and cause them to be unhealthy.
