Is copper a bad heat conductor?
No. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Is cermaic a good conductor?
No. Ceramic is a bad conductor of heat and electricity.
Is a plastic bag a good conductor?
No, because plastic is an insulator making it a very bad conductor of heat.
What the difference between a good conductor and a bad conductor?
A good conductor will conduct more heat, or more electricity, depending on the context, than a bad conductor. That is, it will transfer more of either in any given time period.
Is clay is a better conductor of heat than steel?
For the same reason that it's a better conductor of heat: metals have a fairly large number of electrons that are free to move around.
Why is stainless steel a bad conductor?
Stainless steel is not a bad conductor, but it is not as good a conductor as other metals like copper or aluminum. This is because stainless steel has a lower thermal and electrical conductivity due to its composition, which includes elements that inhibit the flow of heat and electricity.
Is a steel a thermal conductor?
Yes. As with most metals, steel is a good conductor of heat.
Is steel the best conductor of heat?
No.
Is steel conductor or insulator?
insulator
Is a styrofoam a good conducter of heat or a bad conductor of heat?
It is a bad conductor of heat, that is why it is used as an insulating material.
Is ceramic a bad conductor of heat?
Why is glass a good conductor of heat and ceramic is not a good conductor of heat?
Is glass a good conductor or bad conductor of heat?
Glass is a poor conductor of heat.
Is steel and iron a conductor of heat?
yes
Is steel a good conductor of heat?
yes
Is copper a bad heat conductor?
No. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Is rubber the best conductor of heat?
which of these is the best conductor of heat? rubber , stainless steel , plastic , cloth
Is wool conductor of heat?
Wool holds lot of air. As air is a bad conductor of heat, this makes the wool a bad conductor of heat, but a good insulator.
