The conduction of heat is the vibration of the atoms in the material. A solid's atoms are very close together, so that when a particle is heated and begins to vibrate, the other particles vibrate as well very quickly Hope that helped

Silver or aluminum best heat conductor?
Silver is a better heat conductor.
Is sulfur brittle in its solid phase and a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Yes, it is true.
What is the best conductor of transferring energy as heat?
A metal. It's a better conductor than liquid, gas, or rubber.
Is silver poor conductor of heat?
No, silver is not a poor conductor of heat. It is actually a decent conductor of heat, and it conducts heat better than both iron and copper.
Is mercury a better conductor of heat than glass?
No, it is not. The best thermal conductor among the metals is silver, and it is the best electrical conductor as well. There is a general "rule" in the natural world that thermal and electrical conductivity are proportionate among metals; they "track" together. If a metal is a better thermal conductor than another metal, it will be a better electrical conductor as well. It should be noted that the best thermal conductor of all known materials is the allotrope of carbon we call diamond. Interestingly, diamond is an electrical insulator.
Is the Mercury is the best conductor of heat?
It's not, there are materials that are better, like diamond.
Is water a best conductor of heat?
Not exactly. That is why it warms up with heat. A good conductor of heat like copper or iron is best conductor in comparision to water.
Soft low melting solid which is a good conductor of heat?
The metal lead. Solid at room temps, low melting point, good conductor of heat and electricity.
What are the best conductors of heat or electricity?
The best conductor of electricity is Silver, while the best conductor heat is helium (in its Helium II state), but some people consider diamond as the best heat conductor.
Is rubber the best conductor of heat?
which of these is the best conductor of heat? rubber , stainless steel , plastic , cloth
Silver or aluminum best heat conductor?
Silver is a better heat conductor.
Is heat the best conductor?
No
Is a solid rod of copper a better conductor than a hollow rod of copper?
A solid rod because it has more particles in it. The heat then has a solid area to travel through and heat travels best through solids. I think you know the rest.
Is metal the best conductor of heat and electricity?
Silver or Argentum (Ag)The best conductor of heat and electricity is silver.
What metal is the best conductor of heat?
We know that silver is the best heat conductor among the metals, followed by copper.
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.
Which is a better conductor of heat solid or gas?
solid becaus there are more molecules so they spread the heat energy around quicker
