Wood is an insulator.
Glass in a molten state is a conductor of electricity. When glass turns to a solid state it becomes an insulator.Basically, glass in a window or a test tube would be the solid state and so it is a insulator of electricity.
Wood is a good insulater not conductor. metal is a good conductor not insulater,for the same reason.metal has free electrons and wood does not. Lighting will destroy a tree because of the huge amount of electric current but ordinarily it have no affect.
Cotton wool is not a conductor or an insulator it is a semi conductor. It is sort of in the middle, electrons can travel through cotton wool but not as good as silver, bronze, metal and so on.
Wood, plastic, glass, --> holds electrons tightly. opposite of conductors.
Insulation is keeping the heat inside, trapping it and not letting out. Conduction is letting a flow, such as electricity, pass through the material. for example, metal is a wonderful conductor of heat and electricity, but a bad insulator. However, wool is a good insulator and a bad conductor. :) hope that helps!
A matchstick is an insulator of electricity because it is made primarily of wood, which is a poor conductor of electricity.
Wood in itself is an insulator. But when wet, the water particles can conduct electricity.. Hence wet wood will be a conductor, although not a very good conductor, since the current passes only through a very small area
Wood is not a conductor for electricity. IT is actually a good insulator.
A wooden stick is considered an insulator because wood is a poor conductor of electricity. It does not allow electricity to flow easily through it like a conductor would.
Insulator. If it was a conductor you wouldn't be able to pick a pan up off the stove.
Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor
wood is an insulator because charges stay on the point of contact.
Wood is a gd insulator as it is a poor conductor. whereas metal is a gd conductor but poor insulator.
wood is an insulator of heat because its electrons don't allow heat and electricity to flow through them
CONDUCTERWEEEEEEEEEEEE ISOLAToN!!!
Pine wood is not a good conductor of electricity due to its low electrical conductivity. The high resistance of pine wood makes it an insulator rather than a conductor of electricity.
