Is cork a good conductor of heat?

Answer 1

Cork can be used in a lot of ways. Because it floats a magnetized needle placed on top of a piece of cork will act as a compass. This simple device can also respond to a permanent magnet and show action at a distance. Cork can also be used to seal a flask against low pressure leakage.

Answer 2

Cork does not have the "free electrons" that are necassary for current flow. In other words, cork holds onto its electrons better than an object such as metal does.
