Lead is 12th on the list of conductive metals, with Silver, Copper and Gold being the best conductors. The better conductors have to do with available electrons in the conduction band of the metal.
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
Generally speaking, no, they are not. Lead is a pretty good electrical conductor, but pyrite (iron disulfide), which has variable electrical conductivity, might actually be tagged as a semiconductor.
You are a retard and should know that Gallium is a metal so it is conduts electicity! BELAC ^ Actually, not all metals conduct electricity. As you say; 'Retard'.
Lightning strikes strike near water because water is a good conductor of electricity. Most lightning strikes happen by the ocean because the salt makes it an even better conductor at electricity than fresh water.
A poor conductor of heat is usually refereed as an insulator, the reason being is because Metal conceives over thousands of particles, these particles then vibrate between one another causing it to spread dramatically, this process speeds up the heating, enabling it to be hotter then usual. However, None-Metals are called "Insulators" Insulator meaning the particles are either too close to each other or spread out further, a wooden spoon can be described to be a insulator because it doesn't conduct with heat.
Lead is a good conductor. Conductor Lead is a metal and it will conduct electricity. A pencil lead is made of graphite, a type of soft carbon. This is a non-metal, but it does conduct electricity. Conduct
The metal lead. Solid at room temps, low melting point, good conductor of heat and electricity.
Lead is a metal and is considered a good conductor of electricity. It is not a semiconductor or insulator.
No, lead is not a good conductor of heat. It has a low thermal conductivity compared to other metals such as copper or aluminum.
maybe..
Lead is a good conductor of electricity compared to sulfur. This is because lead has free-flowing electrons that can easily carry an electric current, while sulfur lacks these free electrons and does not conduct electricity as well.
yes pencil lead is a conductor it is made of graphite(a form of carbon) which is good conductor of electricity
A lead of a pencil is a conductor because it is made of graphite, which allows electricity to flow through it. Graphite is a good conductor of electricity due to the free movement of electrons in its molecular structure.
Like all metals, a conductor, but not as good a conductor as, for example, silver or copper.
Yes, pencil lead is a conductor of electricity. Lead is a metal. Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Assuming of course you mean pencils back when lead was actually used as the writing medium in the pencil, then yes. Other than that, pencils nowadays are made using graphite as the writing medium. But graphite too can conduct electricity.
Molten lead is a good conductor of electricity because the atoms are free to move and carry electric charge.
Copper, aluminum, gold, iron, silver, lead, tin, platinum, nickel, tungsten A and example of a good conductor of heat is a metal.
