Yes !! It is an alloy of nickel with chromium.
Heating ElementsManufacturers use nichrome wire extensively to make heating coils or elements for household and industrial use. You can find it in toasters, hair dryers, heaters and many other appliances.
Pottery
Ceramics enthusiasts use nichrome wire to hold kilns together, and also to hold pottery together while baking. It will not melt or break at these extremely high temperatures.
You can buy or make a cutter that uses a heated nichrome wire for a blade for cutting certain foams and plastics. The hot wire blade cuts cleaner and neater than a saw or knife.
Since nichrome wire heats up rapidly with voltage applied, it makes safe electric igniters for fireworks and model rockets. The operator can safely set off the device from a distance with a battery and a switch.

Is calcium a good conductor of electricity and heat?
Yes, calcium is a good conductor of heat and electricity. Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Most nonmetals are not good conductors of heat and electricity.
Is cesium a conductor of electricity and heat?
yes it is good conductor of elasticity because it is a metal.
Is copper a good conductor of heat and electricity?
yes copper is a good conductor of heat only becuase it comes in the conductor of heat
Why is sulfur a good conductor of electricity?
It's not a good conductor of electricity or heat, like most other non-metals.
Is gold a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Gold is a good conductor of electricity but a poor conductor of heat. This is due to its high electrical conductivity resulting from its high electron mobility. However, gold's ability to conduct heat is lower compared to other metals like copper or aluminum due to its high density and low specific heat capacity.
Is nichrome a conducter of heat?
yes,in fact it is good conductor of heat
Is calcium a good conductor of electricity and heat?
Yes, calcium is a good conductor of heat and electricity. Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Most nonmetals are not good conductors of heat and electricity.
Should the heating element of an electric iron be made of of iron Silver or nichrome wire?
It should be made of nichrome wire because resistivity of nichrome is high.Its high resistivity causes nichrome to heat up faster, when an electrical current is passed electricity moves through the wires, givingheat to the element.hope it helped
Is Zirconium heat or electricity?
Zirconium is a good conductor of electricity, but it has poor thermal conductivity, meaning it is not a good conductor of heat.

Is rhodium a good conductor of heat or electricity?
Rhodium is an excellent conductor of electricity.
Is helium a good conductor of heat and electricity or a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Helium is a poor conductor of heat and electricity because it is a noble gas with low density and lacks free electrons for conducting electricity.
Is oxygen conductor of heat and electricity?
Oxygen is not a good conductor of heat or electricity. It is actually classified as an insulator in these regards. Metals like copper and silver are examples of good conductors of heat and electricity.
