No because convection can only happen in liquids or gases.

What type of heat transfer when you boil water?

Boiling water involves heat transfer through convection and conduction. Convection occurs as heated water rises, carrying heat throughout the pot. Conduction transfers heat from the heat source to the water at the bottom of the pot.


What is a example of a convection but not conduction?

An example of convection without conduction would be the boiling of water in a pot. As the water heats up at the bottom of the pot, the hotter water rises to the top and cooler water moves downward to replace it. This creates a convection current that circulates the water, heating it evenly throughout the pot.


How does a convection current happen in a boiling pot of water?

In a boiling pot of water, convection currents occur when the water at the bottom is heated and becomes less dense, causing it to rise to the top. As it reaches the top, it cools down and becomes denser, then it sinks back down to the bottom to be reheated. This circular motion of rising and sinking creates a convection current in the pot.


What is the best example of convection?

I don't think such a thing as a "best" example exists. Here are some examples; take your pick which of these you like "best"; or look for additional examples:* In part of the Sun, energy is transported outwards through convection. * When you boil water (or, for that matter, anything that contains water), convection will make the water move around in the pot. * In solar panels - of the type that heat water - convection moves colder water from the tank to the panels, and it moves hotter water back to the tank. * Wind is the result of convection.


How does boiling in a pot demonstrate conduction and convection?

Boiling in a pot demonstrates conduction as heat is transferred from the heat source to the bottom of the pot, causing the molecules in the pot to vibrate and transfer heat throughout the material. Convection is also demonstrated as the heated water near the bottom of the pot rises to the surface, cools, and then sinks back down, creating a continuous circular motion that helps heat the water evenly.

Convection because convection is the transfer of energy through circulation(liquid or gas).
