Is phosphorus a good conductor of heat?

No, phosphorus is a poor conductor of heat. It has a low thermal conductivity because its atoms are not closely packed together, which limits the transfer of heat energy.


Is phosphorus a good conductor of heat and electricity?

Phosphorus is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. It is actually considered to be a semiconductor, meaning it has intermediate conductivity properties between those of a conductor and an insulator.

Is phosphorus a good conductor of electricity?

In its most commonly encountered from "white" phsphorus (where there are individual P4 molecules) is not a good conductor. This is also true for the red, and violet allotropic forms, which have a different structure. The black allotropic form has a metallic appearance but is still a poor conductor but is slightly better than the others, one reference describes it as a semiconductor at high temperatures.
