because wood isnt a conductor, as there are no free electrons to transfer the heat energy from one end to another.
the heat energy remains in one place, hence the wood burns

What is a material that does not conduct heat or electricity well?
An insulator.
What are materials that conduct heat poorly?
The general term for "materials that conduct heat poorly" is "insulators". Examples would be wood, many ceramics, and cloth such as wool or cotton.
Why the wood is bad conductor of heat?
It is due to the arrangement of molecules of wood. As the molecules of wood is far from each other it cant pass heat through its molecules. For that wood is a bad conductor.
What material does not conduct heat or electrical current?
hmmm i also have the same question but i cant find it.
What are things that don't conduct heat called?
Some of the best are gases such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, etc. Perlite is extremely non-conductive. Ordinary materials like paper, wood and rubber are also relatively poor conductors. Please see the link.
Why is a stevenson screen made of wood?
as wood does not conduct heat and allows air to move freely
What can conduct heat poorly?
plastic and wood Actually Mr. peanut wouldn't conduct heat...
Does wood conduct heat?
All materials conduct heat so: Yes The real question is how quickly.
Do nonmetal conduct heat?
No they do not. They keep the heat in. In other words they are Insulators.
Do not conduct heat easily?
Wood is not a conductor of heat and so is plastic whereas metal is the perfect conductor for heat
Does radon conduct heat?
yes AS IT is a metal but why use i cant think
What are insulators of heat?
The substances that don't conduct heat through them are called as 'insulators of heat'. Eg - Plastic, Wood etc.
What do not conduct heat well?
Wood, Plastic, Fabric... and a bunch of other stuff.
What is a material that does not conduct heat or electricity well?
An insulator.
What does not conduct heat or electricity?
hmmm i also have the same question but i cant find it.
What is an example of thermal conduct?
Heat Sink; metals (like a spoon) conduct heat faster that wood (wooden spoon). You can learn this the hard way on your gas grill.
What are materials that conduct heat poorly?
The general term for "materials that conduct heat poorly" is "insulators". Examples would be wood, many ceramics, and cloth such as wool or cotton.
