What else can I help you with?
Is the substance that readily conducts electricity and heat?
Yes, metals are substances that readily conduct electricity and heat due to their free electrons that allow for the flow of electricity and energy. Other examples of materials that conduct electricity and heat well include graphite and some types of ceramics.
What substances is a bad conductor of electricity but a good conductor of heat?
Thank you but is there any other substances that can fit this criteria, particularly any metals. I need to be able to use this substance in extension cords so the substance needs to be inexpensive and common.
Does rayon conduct electricity?
No, rayon does not conduct electricity as it is a non-conductive material.
Is boron a good conductor or poor conducter for heat or electricity?
Boron is generally considered a poor conductor of heat and electricity. As a metalloid, it has some conductive properties, but its conductivity is significantly lower than that of metals. While it can conduct electricity to a limited extent, its primary uses are in ceramics and as a semiconductor rather than as a conductor.
Do detergents conduct electricity?
no they do not conduct because they are neutral things
Can electricity pass through ceramics?
Yes, electricity can pass through ceramics. Ceramics are typically insulating materials, but certain types, such as piezoelectric and ferroelectric ceramics, exhibit conductive properties when subjected to changes in pressure or temperature. These ceramics can conduct electricity due to the movement of charged particles within their structures.
Is a mug a conductor?
No, a mug is not a conductor. Most mugs are made of ceramics, which are insulators and do not conduct electricity.
What are insulations from electricity?
Electricity insulation is a large group of materials which do not conduct electricity. Those materials are used to protect us from electricity. Rubber, plastics, ceramics are only some of the different types of materials which are good insulators.
Why are metals better conductors than ceramics?
Metals have a higher density of free electrons which can move easily, allowing for efficient conduction of heat and electricity. In contrast, ceramics have a more fixed atomic structure with fewer free electrons, limiting their ability to conduct heat and electricity effectively.
Is the substance that readily conducts electricity and heat?
Yes, metals are substances that readily conduct electricity and heat due to their free electrons that allow for the flow of electricity and energy. Other examples of materials that conduct electricity and heat well include graphite and some types of ceramics.
Is cermaic a good conductor?
Ceramic is not a good conductor of electricity. It is considered an insulator, meaning it does not allow electricity to flow through it easily. However, some ceramics, like piezoelectric materials, can conduct electricity under certain conditions.
Does camphor conduct electricity?
No, camphor does not conduct electricity. It is a type of organic compound, so it cannot ionize to conduct electricity.
Does pyrite conduct electricity?
Yes, Pyrite can conduct electricity.
Do pineapples conduct electricity?
yes a pineapple can conduct electricity.
Why superconductor cannot conduct electricity?
Superconductors can conduct electricity.
What substances is a bad conductor of electricity but a good conductor of heat?

Why are ceramics strong?
Ceramics are strong but only in some ways. They are: They resist to high temperatures, they don't conduct electricity and they have a high Young/elasticity module - that is, the deform very little while resisting to high tensions. Atoms in ceramics are either linked by covalent or ionic bounds, which are the strongest bounds at the atomic level. Therefore they tend to have high thermal resistance since its very hard for those bounds to be broken, and so it's very hard for a ceramic to melt. That's why they're used in space shuttle. They don't conduct electricity because there aren't free electrons or free ions capable of transmitting an electric current.
