Are aluminum containers for water better than plastic?
Yes, because you can reuse aluminum containers for water. After a bit, chemicals in plastic will start to seep into the water.
Do drinks stay colder in aluninum cans or plastic bottles?
Drinks should stay colder for longer in a plastic bottle than in an aluminum can because the plastic will not conduct heat anywhere near as much as the aluminum.
What is the purpose of plastic wrap and aluminum foil?
~Ceppwo The purpose of plastic wrap and aluminum foil is for food, it helps the food to stay good, without the plastic wrap and aluminum foil, it would be harder for us to keep it good, and with out it, the food would mold faster . . . so there's your answer:)
How good and bad conductors of heat are useful to us?
Substances that don't have the capacity to carry heat are called bad conductors of heat (or insulators ). Substances that have the capacity to carry heat are called good conductors of heat. As for electricity, it is very, much the same.
What keeps thing hotter plastic wrap aluminum foil or wax paper?
aluminum foil i think
Is there aluminum wire encased in plastic?
Yes, there are aluminium conductors that use a PVC covering for insulation of the conductor.
What insulates better aluminum or plastic?
Plastic. In general, metals are good conductors, plastics are bad conductors. You didn't specify whether you wanted heat insulation or electrical insultation, but the above applies to both.
Why are cookers made of metals and not plastic?
because plastic melts on heating and metal doesnot melt on heating.metals are good conductors of heat.
What is worse for the environment plastic or aluminum foil?
Plastic!!!!!!!!!! Aluminum recycles, but most plastics do not.
What is a better insulator plastic or aluminum?
plastic
What are 3 conductors?
rubber, Styrofoam, and plastic
Materials that are poor conductors of heat?
Materials that are poor conductors of heat are Plastic and Wood "example."
What keep things colder aluminum foil or plastic wrap?
If the object is warm to begin with, aluminium foil, as it is a metal and so will conduct the heat out into the environment. (Metals feel cold because they are good conductors and so conduct the heat out of you when you touch them). If the object is cold to begin with, plastic wrap, as it is a poor donductor and will not allow heat from the environment to enter the object easily. (Plastics feel warm because they do not conduct the heat away when you touch them).
Is wood plastic glass insulator?
Yes. Wood, plastic, and glass are all indeed an insulator. The reason being is that neither of those conduct energy well. But a few materials that would be very good CONDUCTORS would be copper, tin, or aluminum. Hope that helped ;)
Do gold silver and plastic contains only conductors?
No, they do not.
What are 3 non-conductors?
rubber, Styrofoam, and plastic
What materials conducts heat well?
Metals (periodic table metals) and some Metalliods (also called semi-conductors) under certain conditions.
