Can Conduction take place in a liquid?
yes
Explain why conduction and convection cannot take place in an airless vacuum like in outer space?
they have no energy
In a vacuum there is no matter . do you think conduction can take place in vacuum?
Conduction cannot occur within a vacuum because it requires a substrate (i.e. matter) for energy to be transferred.
Convection cannot take place in a solid because the particles can only vibrate and not move from one place to another?
Sure there can be conduction, but quite often, most of the heat will be transposrted by convection, not conduction.
How does loft insulation stop conduction and convection?
Loft insulation stops conduction and convection as the insulation which is inserted into the wall cavity prevents the particles of heat energy from traveling through the wall cavity, this stops conduction from taking place. Loft insulation also prevents convection as the cavity insulation stops the air particles from moving, therefore they cannot transfer heat and convection cannot take place.
Why does conduction take place in a liquid?
no
Where does conduction take place liquid or solid?
Conduction takes place in liquids and gaz's

Why does transfer of heat not place by conduction in fluids?
Wrong, transfer of heat by conduction does take place in fluids.
Why does conduction of heat not take place in water?
It does
