The best electrical conductor known is silver, not copper.
Electrical resistivity of silver: 1,59.10-8 ohm.m
Electrical resistivity of copper: 1,68.10-8 ohm.m
A good electrical conductor has a very low electrical resistivity and a high electrical conductivity (the same principles for the thermal conductivity).
What else can I help you with?
Is a copper wire an insulator or conductor?
Conductor, it is actually one of the best conductors for both heat and electricity.
Which metals are the best conductor of electric?
If the volume and length of the wire are constant, then silver. If the weight and length of the wire are constant, then sodium is the best conductor.
Is a copper wire a insulator or conductor?
Copper wire is a conductor. Copper is commonly used in wiring because it easily allows the flow of electric current due to its high conductivity.
Is stranded copper wire a better conductor than solid copper wire?
no
Which is a better conductor of heat air or a copper wire?
A copper wire is a much better conductor of heat than air is.
What material will allow electricity to flow between the battery and the lightbulb?
Yes, copper wire is a conductive element and is the most addiquite substance for distribution of electricity known.
Is a copper wire a nonmetal conductor?
Yes. It is a nonmetal conductor.
When current passes why copper wire does not get heated while the bulb gets heated?
copper wire is good conductor of heat but bulb is bad conductor of heat.
What is good conductor that you generally find in wire?
copper
Would a copper wire act as the best insulator of electric current?
no it is good conductor because it has free electrons
Why is copper the most used wire?
Because it has good conductivity, was cheap and easy to use.Because out of all the metals copper is the best conductor, apart from silver which is slightly better as a conductor but too expensive to use.
Why is copper wire a good conductor?
Silver, copper and gold are generally considered to be good conductors of electricity. This is because the structure of these metals have tight packed atom with little or no space between them. Thus, they serve as a good conductor.
