Wood is considered an insulator because it does not conduct electricity well. It has high resistance to the flow of electric current due to its molecular structure and the presence of insulating materials such as lignin and cellulose.
Wood in itself is an insulator. But when wet, the water particles can conduct electricity.. Hence wet wood will be a conductor, although not a very good conductor, since the current passes only through a very small area
wood is an insulator because charges stay on the point of contact.
Insulator. If it was a conductor you wouldn't be able to pick a pan up off the stove.
No
A matchstick is an insulator of electricity because it is made primarily of wood, which is a poor conductor of electricity.

Wood is a thermal insulator. It is a poor conductor of heat.

Gold: Insulator* Wood: Insulator Tin: Conductor Plastic: Insulator Cotton: Insulator* Silver: Insulator* Wool: Insulator* Aluminium: Conductor Copper: Conductor Iron: Conductor Rubber: Insulator Air: Insulator* All answers that I have marked with an asterisk (*) are answers that I am pretty sure about but not entirely 100% positive. Not all my answers will be correct but I am fairly sure most of them are. :)
no they atr wood
Wood is a fair insulator, but graphite is a reasonably good conductor, so it depends on which part of the pencil you're measuring.
If the toothpick is made of wood or plastic, it would act as an insulator.

Wood is a gd insulator as it is a poor conductor. whereas metal is a gd conductor but poor insulator.
