No, barium is not a particularly good thermal conductor. Among elements it is rated number just about in the middle, number 55 from the top.

Thermal conductors are rated by W/cmK. Without going into the explanation, a higher number represents a better conductor, and 0.0 means no conductivity at all. Barium is rated at 0.186 W/cmK. By comparison, copper, which is second best as a thermal conductor among elements, is rated at 4.01 W/cmK.

Is duct tape a good conductor of heat?

Duct tape is not a good conductor of heat. Its composition and thickness make it a poor conductor, so it does not readily transfer heat.


Is a pencil a good conductor of heat?

No, a pencil is not a good conductor of heat because it is made of graphite, which is a poor conductor of heat. Heat will not travel easily through a pencil, making it a good insulator rather than a conductor of heat.


Is boron a good conductor of heat?

Yes it is but it is not good for electricity!!


Is phosphate a good conductor of heat?

Phosphate is not a good conductor of heat. It is actually a poor conductor of heat due to its molecular structure, which hinders the transfer of heat energy. This property makes phosphate a good insulator rather than a conductor of heat.

Is calcium a good conductor of electricity and heat?

Yes, calcium is a good conductor of heat and electricity. Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Most nonmetals are not good conductors of heat and electricity.


If something is conductor of heat does it lose heat fast or slow?

If something is a good conductor of heat, it will lose heat faster than a poor conductor. This is because a good conductor allows heat to flow through it quickly, dispersing the heat energy more rapidly.
