as in solid rod there has more free electrons which will cause more current than a hollow metal tube of same dia/length/material.
By stronger, we need to define the loading conditions of the rod or pipe. The strength of a rod or pipe is typically evaluated with axial, transverse (bending), and torsion loads. With the same diameter and the same material, a solid rod is stronger than a hollow pipe. However, with the same weight and material, the hollow pipe is stronger than a solid rod. Because a hollow pipe is lighter than a solid rod at the same diameter, the hollow pipe would have a larger diameter in order to match weights with the solid rod and a larger diameter rod or pipe is stronger than a smaller diameter one.
By definition, a solid metal, including liquid mercury, in its elemental form should conduct electricity. Under what condition a metal cannot conduct electricity? Normally when a metal is oxidized, the result is highly resistive, but then the oxide film (such as rust) is no longer considered metallic. Some metals, such as sodium, don't normally exist in its elemental form in nature. If these metals are somehow kept out of trouble (air), they too should conduct electricity. ==================================
Depends on what you mean by "better". For the same dimensions, a solid shaft will be a bit stronger, but also a lot heavier. If you were to make a hollow shaft of the same weight, but a bigger diameter, it'd be a lot stronger than the solid shaft.
yes it is a good building material if you are trying to sculpt because if you want to make something solid and strong then you should not use cooper because it is a soft metal and is good for layering it on a different metal and carving into the cooper.
A solid slab is either solid concrete foundation or a flat solid wood door as opposed to a hollow core or a panel door.
Depends on the frequency. The higher the frequency the more the current has a tendency to stick to the surface. But for the most common frequencies cross-section area is more important for conductivity than solid or hollow.
it depends, some netal poles on traffic lights are hollow and those with flags are solid

Wood doors are generally 1 3/4" solid for exterior doors. Metal exterior doors are hollow.
No solid iodine does not conduct electricity.
Solid doors are generally more durable than hollow doors because they are made of a solid piece of material, such as wood or metal, which makes them stronger and less prone to damage. In terms of sound insulation, solid doors are also more effective at blocking out noise compared to hollow doors, which have empty spaces inside that allow sound to pass through more easily.
Yes, copper can conduct electricity in its solid state. This is because copper has free electrons that are able to move freely through the metal lattice, allowing for the flow of electric current. For this reason, copper is a commonly used material in electrical wiring.
A solid core door is a type of door made with a solid material, such as wood or metal, throughout its entire thickness. This makes it heavier and more durable than hollow core doors, which have empty spaces inside. Solid core doors provide better sound insulation and are more resistant to damage compared to hollow core doors.
no. nickel is a solid metal and not viscous material.
Depends on the size, shape , if it's hollow or solid... Stupid question really (:
what is the difference between solid and hollow?
An ionic compound. Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in their solid state because the ions are locked in place and cannot move to carry a charge. However, when melted, these ions are free to move and conduct electricity.
