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
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.
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.
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.
