What metals are conductors?
The related link lists all of the elements of the Periodic Table, by electrical conductivity. The top of the list is the worst conductor (Sulfur). The most conductive is silver. The second most conductive metal is copper. Due to expense of silver, copper is preferred. Aluminum is commonly used due to weight factor and cost. (even though a thicker wire is necessary to carry the same current). Gold, while more expensive and less conductive than copper, is resistant to corrosion, and is very ductile.
Name three of the best conductive materials.?
Leaving aside superconductors: graphene, silver, copper.

How do you recycle gold?
Computer motherboard can be recycled for gold and other precious metals. Here we will explain how to collect gold out of PC motherboard.see more: http://www.goldinpc.com/scraping-gold-from-computer-motherboard/
What is a a electrically nonconductive material?
any material that will not allow electricity to pass through it. rubber, plastic, some electrically conductive materials are metals, esp. gold, water, neon gases insulators, glass, paper :)
How does elements in gold differ from a gold compound itself?
Gold is gold...a gold compound has other atoms bonded to the gold atoms, but the gold atoms don't really change.
What material or substance makes gold?
Gold, just gold - as it is an element (symbol Au). Most gold jewelry is really made of an alloy of gold, which means it contains gold and also other metals which lower the cost and provide increased durability, decreased malleability, etc. Atoms of gold are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons... just like atoms of any other element.
Why doesn't gold bond with anhy other elements?
Gold is a "Noble Metal", which means its atoms do not readily share electrons with atoms of other elements.
What are the most conductive metals and how do they compare in terms of electrical conductivity?
The most conductive metals are silver, copper, and gold. Silver is the most conductive metal, followed by copper and then gold. Silver has the highest electrical conductivity, followed by copper, and then gold.
What is the next highest degree of electrical conductivity other than silver?
Gold is incredibly conductive, which is why gold-plated wires tend to be more prized.
Why is gold soft when you bit it?
Gold is a soft metal because its atomic structure allows for its atoms to slide past each other easily. This makes it malleable and ductile, which is why gold can be shaped into various forms without breaking.
What is the order of the most conductive metals?
The order of the most conductive metals is silver, copper, and gold.
What metals make up gold?
The metal that makes up pure gold is gold and nothing else. Gold is a metallic element found in its raw form. Sometimes other metals are mixed with gold like silver for jewelry.
What is the solution that has gold as it's solvent and silver as solute?
The solution with gold as the solvent and silver as the solute is a gold-silver alloy, where silver is dissolved in molten gold. This type of solution is commonly used in jewelry making to create white gold or in electronics for its conductive properties.
Is gold conductive?
Yes, very conductive, its one of the best conductors there is.
What makes gold an element?
The fact that it is composed of one type of atom, specifically, gold is composed of atoms with 79 protons each.
Why is gold malleable?
Gold is malleable because its atoms are arranged in a way that allows them to easily slide past each other when a force is applied, without breaking the metal. This property makes gold easy to shape into different forms without breaking.
