What are the seven properties of metal?

8 properties of metals: 1. Ductile 2. Malleable 3. Conduct electricity 4. Conduct heat 5. High melting point 6. High boiling point 7. Form basic oxides 8. Bond with non-metals to produce salts


Is a wire a conductor or an insulator?

Annealed Monel has a conductivity of only 3.4% that of annealed copper wire.Semiconductors have conductivities in the range 10^-6 to 10^5 S/m. Monel is about 20 times more conductive than the most conductive semiconductor. Therefore, Monel is a conductor. But, compared to good conductors like silver (63 MS/m), copper (57 MS/m), gold (45 MS/m), and aluminum (35 MS/m), Monel (2 MS/m) is not very highly conductive.In summary, Monel is a poor conductor, but a conductor none the less.


Give 5 example of insulators and conductors?

Conductors- which conduct electricity... Allow heat and electricity to pass through them.... Eg: metals like gold, silver, copper,etc. Insulators- which do not allow eletricity and eat to pass through them. Eg: glass and rubber - do not conduct electricity.


What are the similarities and differences between heat and temperature?

Heat is defined as the total kinetic energy of all the atoms and molecules that make up a substance.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual atoms or molecules in a substance.


What is a good insulater?

Ill give you Three, Air (insulates very well against electricity and heat transfer) Glass (Similar to air only much more so) Ceramics (because of the number of empty spaces ie air, ceramics are extremely good as insulating against heat)

How do you prove that iron is good conductor of heat?

Iron is a good conductor of heat because its electrons are free to move and carry thermal energy throughout the material. This allows the heat to easily flow through the iron, making it an efficient conductor of thermal energy. Additionally, experiments that measure the rate at which heat passes through iron compared to other materials can provide evidence of its good thermal conductivity.

What is the conductor of 5 ohms?

A conductor with a resistance of 5 ohms allows electric current to flow through it with relatively low resistance. The specific materials and dimensions of the conductor determine its resistance; for example, copper or aluminum wires can have different lengths and cross-sectional areas that influence their overall resistance. In practical applications, a conductor's resistance affects how much current can pass through it for a given voltage, as described by Ohm's Law (V = IR).


An electric iron of resistance 20 ohms takes a current of 5A Calculate the heat developed in 30 seconds?

heat developed = 5*5*20*30 = 15000 joulesAnswerWith the information supplied, you can only determine the work done (W) by the circuit, not the heat (Q). To do so, you will need to know the mass (m) and specific heat capacity (C) of the conductor, and the temperature-difference between the conductor and its surroundings. The equation you need to do this is:W - Q = m C (Tf-Ti)With the information supplied, you can only calculate the work done: W = I2Rt.

What will take in more heat R 5 insulation R 35 insulation?

Well, an R-5 will take in more heat because it is less than 35. Get it? Got it? Good.


Does lithium conduct electritcity?

It is classified as a "conductor", yes, but it isn't a very good one. It conducts electricity about 5 times worse than copper does.


Why do we not use water inside a thermometer?

1. Its boiling point is low as 100 degree celsius 2. It freezes at higher temperature 0 deg celsius 3. So range is very low 4. It sticks to glass 5. It is not a good conductor so heat cannot be easily transmitted

Does rock transfer heat rapidly?

Depends on the type of rock. The thermal conductivity of most rocks range from 1 to 5 W/mK. (watt per meter kelvin) Compared to other things: Copper, a good conductor, its +-390 W/mK . PUR foam, a good insulator, its +-0,03 W/mK . So to answer your question: heat goes through rock, but not rapidly.
