Actually diamond is the best conductor of heat, and a diamond film substrate is used as a heat conductor in some microprocessors.
Silver and copper are the metals more commonly used as heat conductors because of cost.
The best conductor for heat and electricity is any type of metal element.
Cotton is an isulator because it does not transfer electric charge easily:) :)
Insulators do not conduct heat and are therefore non-metals. Metals do conduct heat, and vey well may i add. But, for the record, you're thinking of electricity. Potatoes conduct heat, and they're not metals. Anyone who has held a lump in their hand will tell you that playdough conducts heat, in fact, rather a lot of other materials conduct heat and water also conduct heat
All materials conduct heat so: Yes The real question is how quickly.
The ability to conduct heat or electricity is acutally called conductivity.
no
To determine the heat of combustion for a substance, one can conduct a calorimetry experiment where the substance is burned in a controlled environment and the heat released is measured. This heat release is then used to calculate the heat of combustion for the substance.
Spoons conduct heat because they are made of metal, which is a good conductor of heat. When a hot substance comes into contact with the metal spoon, the heat quickly travels through the spoon and warms up the handle.
No. The ability to conduct heat (known as thermal conductivty) is a unique property of a substance. Metals, for instance, typically conduct heat better than nonmetals. But diamond is the best thermal conductor of all. The ability to absorb heat (known as specific heat) is likewise unique for different substances.
nonmetals
no, metal is the best heat && energy conductor.
Graphite is an example of a substance that can conduct electricity but is a poor conductor of heat. This is because of its unique structure, where it has delocalized electrons that can move freely to conduct electricity, but the heat energy is not easily transferred through the material due to weak intermolecular forces.
Electricity does not conduct heat. Your question is meaningless.
metals and air mainly
Silver is the best (and so fastest) metal to conduct heat.
The best conductor for heat and electricity is any type of metal element.
wax cookie sheets are usually best
