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.

Copper and aluminum. Most heat sinks are made of Aluminum (cheap and a good conductor of heat).


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.
