Non metals do not conduct heat. They have high resistance.They are insulators.
Non metals do not have a pool of 'free electrons' (as metals do with metallic bonds). Hence they generally are poor conductors of heat. Nonmetals such as Styrofoam are widely used as insulators. Graphite is an exception as it is a good conductor of heat with its free electrons.
Most of the non metals does not conductors because the do not have free electrons. But graphite is a good conductor. Most of the non metals are insulators.

Yes, nonmetals do conduct heat, although not as efficiently as metals do.

the main points are 6 to 7 but i am only mentioning one metals are good conductors of heat non metals are not good conductors of heat
Elements that are classified as non-metals are characterized by a tendency to undergo chemical reactions in which they acquire electrons; this compares to metals which tend to lose electrons. In slightly more technical terms, this means that non-metals are oxidizing agents and metals are reducing agents; when you mix metals and non-metals together, they tend to react with each other, in what is sometimes called a redox reaction (reduction and oxidation). Other than that, non-metals are generally softer (or gaseous) and less shiny than metals are, they generally do not conduct electricity as well as metals do, they do not have the silvery color of metals.
It's not a good conductor of electricity or heat, like most other non-metals.
if u have studied about metals and non metals then u must be knowing that it is because of the difference in the properties of metals and non metals.
Cobalt, being a good metal, conducts both heat and electricity better than non-metals.
Electrical and heat conduction is much greater in metals than in non metals.
Non-metals tend to not conduct heat
Nonmetals
All Non-Metals are poor conductor of electricity.
Metals are better conductors and non-metals are better insulators. Metalloids can be either a conductor or an insulator, it depends on the object.
they form an ionic compound that mix together.
Every matter conducts heat but non-metals conduct less heat than metals generally . For exception diamond which is a non metal is one of the best conductors of heat.
Conducts heat and electricity very poorly.
Most non-metals have covalent structures. These structures do not allow heat energy to travel from one point to another. In metals the heat energy quickly travels from one point to another due to vibration of the free electrons in the electronic cloud surrounding the metal ions. In non-metals, the electrons are bond inside the atom so cannot help in transfer of heat energy.
Most non-metals are in fact considered to be non-conductors. Some non-metals however do have the ability to conduct heat and electricity.
The electrons in a metal can leave the atom and move about in the metal as free electrons. While atoms in non-metals are bonded. Heat energy is passed along by vibartions as the bonds between the non-metals atoms are shaken. Conduction in metals is faster than in non-metals. Making metals good conductors and making non-metals poor conductors.
There are a number of ways in which a metal can be differientiate a metal from a non-metals, these involve contrasting the properties between metals and non-metals and testing them to distinguish them from one another. Some contrasting properties between metals and non-metals: 1.) Metals conduct electricity whereas non-metals do not. 2.) Metals are shiny whereas non-metals are not. 3.) Metals are malleable whereas non-metals are brittle. 4.) Metals often have a higher boiling/melting point than non-metals. 4.) Metals are hard whereas non metals are not.
