Yes, a paper clip is a conductor of heat. Metals like steel, from which paper clips are often made, are good conductors of heat because the electrons are free to move and transfer thermal energy quickly through the material.
The answer depends on the material used to make the paper clip, the purity of the copper, the temperature, the thickness of both of the materials, the length of the copper and the paper clip, and a variety of other factors. Generally, copper is a better conductor than the paper clip.
Metal is an excellent conductor of electricity. So a metal paper clip placed in an electric circuit will conduct whatever current may be in that circuit. If the current is very large, the paperclip may get hot.
No, glass microscope slides are insulators. Glass is a poor conductor of electricity.
A substance that is not a conductor of electricity is called an insulator. Insulators have high resistance to the flow of electrical current, preventing the movement of electrons through the material. Examples of insulators include rubber, plastic, and glass.
Conductor
If it is made of metal, it is a conductor.
Well, it's certainly a conductor, although not as good as aluminium or copper. On the other hand a plastic paper clip is not a conductor.

That depends on the material. If it's made of metal (which is usually the case), it will be a good conductor both of electricity and of heat.
Brass is a metal that conducts electricity. Therefore, a brass paper clip is a conductor.
Insulator
Copper is a conductor of electricity.
Copper is the best conductor of electricity among the options provided. Oxygen, wood, and paper are insulators and do not conduct electricity well.
