Is lead a good conductor of electricity?

Answer 1

Lead is a good conductor.

Conductor

Lead is a metal and it will conduct electricity.

A pencil lead is made of graphite, a type of soft carbon. This is a non-metal, but it does conduct electricity.

Conduct

Answer 2

No, lead is not a good conductor of electricity. It is a poor conductor compared to metals such as copper and silver. Lead is often used as a shielding material against radiation due to its density and ability to absorb radiation.

Answer 3

Lead is not a good insulator but I think that it is a good conductor . Lead is used at many places as lead pipes and all so that they can conduct the electricity and they have low melting point they are not capable of high voltage transmission through it. Lead is also used as a composite metal with iron.

Answer 4

Lead is a good electrical conductor, but has its limits. The malleability of lead makes it a great material for use where the greatest electrical contact is required, such as a car battery terminal. It's downfall is it's low melting point, so it is almost useless in high voltage applications.

Answer 5

Lead, like all metals, conducts electricity well. However, it is not among the most conductive metals. Its conductivity is less than a tenth that of copper.

Answer 6

Lead is a reasonable conductor of electricity.

Answer 7

Lead is not used as a conductor but it is conductive.
yes

Answer 8

Not the best, but it works as a conductor.

Answer 9

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

Answer 10

depends on size
