Because it is very dense, meaning all of the particles are packed closely together so the heat passes easiere through it

Heat proof mat use?
A heat proof mat is used in science when doing an experiment with fire or hot liquids. It is to protect the surface that the experiment is being made on
Do clear liquids absorb heat or reflect heat?
Reflect
Does wax paper absorb heat?
Wax paper does not absorb heat. Wax paper is coated with paraffin, which does not allow heat to be absorbed. This allows wax paper to be used when cooking.
Which colors absorb heat faster and which colors absorb heat slower?
Yes different colors do absorb heat differently. You can tell that darker colors absorb more heat than lighter colors because the light reflects off of the light colors.
Which element is used to absorb heat in spacecrafts?
The element is used to absorb heat in a spacecraft is helium. There are modern technologies that are being developed for the same purpose.
What metal have the property to absorb a lot of heat?
lead
What type of metal absorb the heat?
Gold, aluminum, and copper all are good absorbers of heat
What is a hypothesis for which metal absorbs heat the most?
A hypothesis is a guess based on what you know. Which metal do YOU think will absorb heat the most? Write it as a statement and that will be your hypothesis: "I think _____ will absorb heat the most." It doesn't matter if your hypothesis is right or wrong, just that you have a guess.Of course, then you need to test your hypothesis and actually find out which metal does!
Does copper absorb heat and expel it much efficiently better than any other metal explain your answer and what metal offer that if not?
No.
Does a metal plate absorb heat faster with gaps?
Yes, if the metal plate have gaps, it would definitely absorb more heat. Why? Gaps is to allow expansion when heated. This is the same example of the MRT train tracks. So, if the metal plates don't have gaps, the metal plates would expand further and maybe it will 'burst'.
Why is a metal plate used in heat sinks?
because metal is a good conductor of energy (there are a lot of free electrons in a metal) and this will cause the metal to absorb and radiate more energy combined with the increased surface area of the heat sink
Which surfaces absorb heat?
All surfaces absorb some heat.
Do black objects absorb heat?
They absorb light which is converted into heat energy
Which metal can absorb more heat?
Lithium has the highest specific heat at 3.57 KJ/kg Ko.Furthermore:Lithium is also the lightest solid element, which is why it has the highest mass specific heat (energy per kilogram per degree). The molar heat capacity (energy per mole per degree) is nearly the same, 25 J/mol/Ko, for all metals. The volumetric heat capacity (energy per unit volume per degree) is slightly changing among metals and a cubic centimeter of uranium has about 18% greater volumetric heat capacity than the same volume of lithium, 1.9 J/cm3/Ko, but it is 36 times the mass.The result is that if you have a fixed metal mass and you want to absorb heat, then lithium is best, but if you have a fixed volume and you can use a very dense metal, then uranium works though it is a bit more expensive.
Do flowers absorb heat?
Flowers use their epicalyx and calyx to absorb sunlight.
Can a sponge absorb heat?
A sponge definitely does have the ability to absorb heat. Sponges absorb heat as well as many other things like water.
Metal ice-cube tray and a plastic tub of ice cream are sitting in the freezer Why does the ice-cube tray feel colder to touch than the tub of ice cream?
The metal tray has both a higher specific heat (ability to gain or hold heat) and a higher conductivity (ability to transfer heat). So while the ice cream will increase in temperature where you touch it (and hence only absorb a small amount of body heat), the tray can absorb more heat, and transfer it to all of the metal and ice in the tray. (This is also why you can lick a wooden pole in the winter, but not a metal one!)
