No it isn't a conductor
Anthracite coal, a type of coal with a high carbon content and low impurities, can turn into metamorphic rock called graphite under high heat and pressure. Graphite is a soft, crystalline form of carbon that is a good conductor of electricity.
No, modern pencil "lead" is actually made of a mixture of graphite and clay, not coal. Graphite is a form of carbon that is a good conductor of electricity and is commonly used in pencils due to its smooth writing properties.
Graphite and coal are both forms of carbon, but graphite is a crystalline form while coal is a sedimentary rock made up of plant material. Graphite is used for its lubricating properties and in pencil lead, while coal is primarily used for generating heat and electricity. Additionally, graphite is a good conductor of electricity and heat, whereas coal is not.
Brass is a metal that conducts electricity. Therefore, a brass paper clip is a conductor.

No, coal is not a good conductor of electricity. It is considered an insulator rather than a conductor, as it does not allow the flow of electric current easily. Metals such as copper and aluminum are better conductors of electricity.

Coal is usually not a very good conductor of heat, but it depends a lot on the type of coal as to how poor a conductor it is. In a study done at the University of Oklahoma, conductivities of 55 different types of US coals were measured at 22°C in the laboratory. Their thermal conductivities ranged from 0.22 to 0.55 W/m°K. Other, more limited studies get the same types of values. For comparison, air at room temperature and pressure (which is considered a pretty fair insulator) has a conductivity of about 0.026 W/m°K (about 1/10 of coal). Copper (which is considered a really good conductor) at the same conditions is around 360 W/m°K (roughly 1000 times that of coal). By that comparison, coal would be considered a fairly poor conductor of heat. This is kind of interesting since graphite and diamond (pure forms of carbon - which is what coal is mostly made up of) are rather good conductors of heat. The difference is mostly due to the fact that coal is not PURE carbon, that it has a fairly heterogeneous structure (as opposed to crystalline), that it varies in how wet or dry it is, and that it may actually be somewhat porous.

Yes, because it has lots of trapped air in it and that's what makes a good insulator.
Graphite is a pure form of coal or carbon. It is a good conductor of heat and electrcity. It is used as a neutron moderator in nuclear reactors of type Gas Cooled reactors.
A conductor Conductor The conductor is also known as "Maestro".
Coke is the solid carbonaceous material derived from destructive distillation of low-ash, low-sulfur bituminous coal. Cokes from coal are grey, hard, porous, and not considered good at conducting electricity.
Copper is a conductor of electricity.
