Air is not a good conductor of heat, but it is not the best insulator on its own either. Air pockets trapped in materials such as foam, fiberglass, or wool are more effective insulators because they limit heat transfer through conduction and convection.
it is good heat insulator, as it has air in it. as air is a good insulator of heat, the sponge, which has lots of pockets of air also becomes a good insulator
Fiberglass batting is a more effective insulator than air because it traps pockets of air within its structure, preventing heat transfer. Air alone is not a good insulator as it allows for convection and conduction to occur easily.
Insulator.
No, heat is not an example of an insulator. Insulators are materials that do not conduct heat well, such as wood or plastic. Heat is a form of energy that can be transferred through conduction, convection, or radiation.
Polystyrene is a substance that when in a solid state has a lot of holes. These holes trap air inside them and since air is a good insulator, the polystyrene cup is a good insulator. *Air is only a good insulator when not moving, hence why a breeze feels cold.

Yes, air is a good insulator.Yes, air is a good insulator of both heat and electricity

Insulator.
it is a good insulator because its a warm and keeps heat in by trapping it with air
newspaper is a good insulator because it will trap the heat in the thickness of the newspaper. it isn't always a good insulator because it can get wet and tear so therefor it will let heat out
Air bubbles.
It is not a good insulator if you are dealing with temperature because of the air pockets and the temperature of air inside a bubble (air pocket) but it would be a good insulator if your dealing with something related to circuits because plastic is not a conductor.

Air is a good thermal insulator because it is a poor conductor of heat. In materials like fiberglass insulation, air pockets are trapped within the material to reduce heat transfer. This is why double-pane windows and insulated walls are effective at keeping heat inside a building.
