Does conduction happen in fluids?

Guessing you mean electrical conduction. Yes, liquids can conduct electricity. Pure water is a poor conductor, water with impurities like salt water is an EXCELLENT conductor.


Which water is better for electrical conduction boiled water sea water distilled water ordinary water?

Sea water has the best electrical conductivity. Ions from the salt can conduct electricity - but not very well.


What does conduction require?

If you mean electrical conduction, that requires electrical charges that are fairly free to move around.


How does the electrical and heat conduction of metals and non metals compare?

Electrical and heat conduction is much greater in metals than in non metals.


What is heat or electrical transfer by contact?

Conduction


What are conduction?

The quantum mechanical energy band where electrons reside in semiconductors that participate in electrical conduction.


Is distilled water a good conductor or a poor conductor?

Distilled water is a poor conductor. For conduction in any liqiud it must have +ve and -ve charged ions. Water in pure state doesn't dissociate appreciably to give enough ions for electrical conduction. But when soluble ionic compounds are added to it, their ions help water molecules to dissociate and give more ions for good conduction.

What are conduction band?

The quantum mechanical energy band where electrons reside in semiconductors that participate in electrical conduction.


What is an aberrant conduction?

An aberrant conduction is a heart condition where the electrical stimulus travels via an abnormal pathway.


Does conduction produce heat?

no, conduction describes how the heat is transported not how it is generated. With conduction, a heat source is still needed.
