Is Styrofoam a conductor or an insulator?
it is very good insulator
Is Styrofoam a good conductor or a good insulator?
Electrical or thermal? Either way, it's an insulator.
What are good insulator and bad insulator?
some good insulators are glass styrofoam and almost anything that does not conduct heat very well
Is a Styrofoam cooler conductor or insulator?
Insulator
Which type of matter is the best insulator?
Styrofoam is the best material to use as an insulator. Styrofoam is the best insulator, since the temperature of the water in the styrofoam glass decreased the least. If you mean what "state" of matter is the best insulator then you're probably looking for gas as the answer. The state of matter that is best as a thermal insulator is gas.
Why does styrofoam cup keep drinks hot longer?
Styrofoam is an excellent insulator.
Is Styrofoam a conductor or an insulator?
it is very good insulator
Is a foam coffee cup a conductor or a insulator?
Styrofoam, along with most other expanded plastics, is a very poor insulator of heat and electricity, thereby making a foam coffee cup a very good insulator.
Why does a styrofoam cup keep hot chocolate warmer then a glass?
If the Stainless Steel cup has no insulation the Styrofoam cup will keep it warm longer.
Is a metal cup a better insulator or a plastic cup a better insulator?
Putting the cup in the freezer keeps ice from melting. Those cups will slow down the melting rate, but if you've got ice at room temperature it's gonna melt eventually. Having said that, ice will melt slowest in a styrofoam cup.
Is styrofoam insulator or conductor?
Styrofoam is an insulator.
What is a good insulator for cold drinks?
styrofoam
What is a good insulator for a bottle?
Styrofoam is excellent
Is Styrofoam a good conductor or a good insulator?
Electrical or thermal? Either way, it's an insulator.
How well does styrofoam conduct heat?
Yes, styrofoam is full of air cells and air is a good thermal insulator. Styrofoam has poor solvent resistance, and poor hot performance.
Why is Styrofoam a good insulator?
Styrofoam is a very porous material; air from the closed pores has a bad thermal conductivity.
What is a good insulator for frozen water bottle?
Styrofoam is excellent
