What are some everyday insulators?
styrofoam cotton plastic paper cheese
How would you summarize what sort of materials are insulators and which are conductors?
Conductors are usually made of metals. The reason why the handle of a metal spoon gets hot in a hot bowl of soup is because metal is a conductor of heat. Insulators are usually made of materials such as styrofoam, plastic, and paper. That is why when you buy a cup of coffee at a cafe it is given to you in a paper cup.
What are good examples of heat insulators?
vacuum, styrofoam, plastic, wood, glass, rubber
What substances are the best insulators?
Usually nonmetals. Rubber, plastic, wood, cloth, paper, Styrofoam, tinfoil (to reflect the heat.)The most common insulator for electricity is plastic.

What are good insulators?
Good insulators include glass, styrofoam, plastic, wood, rubber, cloth, air, glass, and etc. It really depends on what you want to use it for. For example, fiberglass or styrofoam works the best as heat insulators. And rubber or glass as electric insulators.
What are good insulators to keep something cool?

What are materials that do not easily transfer heat?
Insulators such as asbestos and styrofoam.
What are examples of insulators of heat?
styrofoam, rubber, air, vacuum
What are some everyday insulators?

Does a styrofoam cup equal 3 liters?
if its a small Styrofoam cup definitely not
Which type of cup will keep a hot drink, warm longer paper, plastic, Styrofoam or glass?
Styrofoam cups are generally the best at keeping hot drinks warm for a longer period of time. This is because Styrofoam is an excellent insulator, meaning it does not conduct heat well and therefore helps to keep the temperature of the drink constant. Paper cups and plastic cups are also decent insulators, but they are not as effective as Styrofoam. Glass cups are poor insulators and are not recommended for keeping hot drinks warm.
Examples of insulators in the home?
Blankets, coats, Styrofoam, anything that is furry, EXT.
