A vacuum can be produce by emptying a container
Heat is conducted through a glass wall of vacuum glass by the process of conduction. In vacuum glass, there is a vacuum layer between two glass panes that inhibits heat transfer through convection and conduction, making it an effective insulator. Heat is mainly conducted through the glass itself, with minimal heat loss due to the vacuum layer providing insulation.
Light travels at a slower speed in glass compared to vacuum. The ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in glass is called the refractive index of glass. So, the distance light travels in glass would be the distance it travels in vacuum divided by the refractive index of glass.
Diamond has the highest index of refraction among vacuum, diamond, air, and crown glass. It has an index of refraction of around 2.42, which is higher than that of air (1.0003), vacuum (1), and crown glass (around 1.5).
The vacuum between the glass walls in a vacuum flask acts as an insulator, preventing heat transfer through conduction or convection. This helps to maintain the temperature of the contents by minimizing heat loss or gain.
The index of refraction for glass is calculated by taking the speed of light in a vacuum and dividing it by the speed of light in glass. Since light travels 1.5 times faster in a vacuum, the index of refraction for glass would be 1 divided by 1.5, which equals 0.67.
because vacuum will make the glass collapse
Glass and metal. More specifically, a filament, wires that conduct, and a vacuum inside a glass shell.
Glass
Theoretically yes because glass is a poorer thermal conductor than steel.

Take a metal cylinder, and place a spring in the bottom (as a shock absorber). Inside the metal cylinder, sitting atop the spring is a glass bottle. Between the cylinder and the bottle (around the sides and the bottom of the glass bottle) is a vacuum. Both the vacuum and the glass serve as insulators for anything that is to be stored in the glass bottle. This means that, if you store something warm in the inner glass bottle, it will be very difficult for the heat to conduct through the glass AND the vacuum...and the material will stay warm. If you store something cold in the bottle, it will be very difficult for heat to conduct through the cylinder, the vacuum, and the glass...and the material will stay cold.

About 2/3 its speed in a vacuum.
