SELENIUM is a rare element and it is a semi-conductor. Mostly used as rectifiers BUT since it is old technology and dangerous to humans is very seldom used.
The efficiency of selenium as a conductor depends entirely on the amount of light that surrounds it (more light means that it will be more effective).

Why is sulfur a good conductor of electricity?
It's not a good conductor of electricity or heat, like most other non-metals.
What is sulfur a poor conductor of?
Sulfur is a poor conductor of electricity and heat due to its electron configuration and molecular structure, which restrict the movement of electrons.
Is sulfur a good conductor of heat and electricity?
Sulfur is generally not a good conductor of heat and electricity, if it is the atom itself you are talking about. If Sulfur is present in an ionic compound, (example: Copper Sulfide, Lead Sulfide), then this compound will conduct electricity in only the MOLTEN state. Also, if Sulfur is in a polyatomic ion (example: Sulfate) and this polyatomic ion forms an ionic compound with another metal, in an aqueous solution, then it will conduct electricity. Remember, ionic compounds only conduct in the MOLTEN/LIQUID state. Glad to help, regards
Which element is brittle in the solid phase and is a poor conductor of heat and the solid electricity?
Any of the ceramic like materials. Look to the up and to the right of the periodic table. Semi-metals and solid non metals would be good places to start.
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.
Sulfur a good conductor of heat?
No, sulphur is not a good conductor of heat its crystals may conduct a very small amount of heat.
Is solid sulfur a good conductor of heat?
No, solid sulfur is a poor conductor of heat because it is a nonmetal and does not have free-moving electrons to transfer heat efficiently.
Is S a shiny and a good conductor of heat?
No, the element sulfur (S) is not shiny and is not a good conductor of heat. Sulfur is a non-metal and is typically a yellow, brittle solid at room temperature. It is a poor conductor of heat due to its molecular structure, which does not allow for efficient transfer of thermal energy.
Is sulfur a poor conductor of energy?
Yes, it is a horrible conductor of energy.
Is sulfur a good conductor or a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Sulfur is a non-metal and non metals are poor conductors.Sulfur is an insulator.So pretty much Sulfur is a bad conductor.(Hope it anwsered your question)
Is sulfur conductor?
No. Sulfur is a nonmetal and is not a conductor of heat or electricity.
Is sulfur a conductor of heat and electricity?
Yes,it should be,although it is not a good one,because it is a metalloid.
Is sulfur conductor of heat and electricity?
Yes,it should be,although it is not a good one,because it is a metalloid.
Why is sulfur a good conductor of electricity?
It's not a good conductor of electricity or heat, like most other non-metals.
What is sulfur a poor conductor of?
Sulfur is a poor conductor of electricity and heat due to its electron configuration and molecular structure, which restrict the movement of electrons.
Why is it that sulfur is not a good conductor?
Its a non-metal.
Does sulfur conduct heat or is it a thermal insulator?
Sulfur is a poor conductor of heat, so it acts as a thermal insulator. This is because sulfur's atomic structure does not allow heat to flow easily through it.
