Why do you have metal saucepans?
Metals are good thermal conductors which is good for cooking.
What metals have thermal conductivity?
ALL metals are pretty good conductors of heat. Some, like gold, are very good conductors of heat.
Does alkali metals conduct energy?
Alkali metals are good conductors of electricity, though they are not as conductive as transition metals like copper or silver. They are also fairly good thermal conductors.
Substances that are poor conductors of heat?
After the published tables the silica aerogel is a very good thermal insulator.
Why the bottom of a clothes iron is made of metal?
Because metal is one of the greatest conductors of electricity.
Why are metals use for power cables?
Because metals are in general good conductors of electricity.
What large group of materials are good thermal conductors and good electrical conductors?

What are materials that transfer thermal energy well called?
Materials that transfer thermal energy well are called good themal conductors. The metals are generally good conductors of heat (thermal energy).
Why do you have metal saucepans?
Metals are good thermal conductors which is good for cooking.
Thermal conductors are substances that do what?
They are good and conducting and transferring heat.
What type of materials are good thermal and electrical conductors?

Do metals have good thermal and electrical conductors?
Generally yes.
Do metal have poor thermal?
If you mean "thermal conductivity", no; metals are generally fairly good heat conductors.
What are the substances that conduct heat are known as what?
They are called good thermal conductors.
