What is the compressibility of a fluid?

What kind of fluid, liquid or gas? Gases are compressible, liquids pretty much are not. (And yes, both gases and liquids are fluids; the word "fluid" comes from the same root word that gives us "flow," which both gases and liquids are capable of doing.)


Can conduction travel through liquids or gases?

Yes, conduction can occur in liquids and gases, although it is less efficient compared to solids. In liquids and gases, conduction is primarily due to the transfer of heat by the collision of molecules. Materials like metals are better conductors than liquids and gases because their molecules are more closely packed.
