As we known that the conduction is due to the vibration of the atoms on their fixed positions.And due to the transfer of free elctrons.the conduction is actually took place in solids.

The best example to consider heating a solid slab from one end whose other end is at lower temperatue due to this temp. difference the heat transfer occurs and whole slab gets hotter due to conduction(vibrations of the atoms in solids).

In case of conduction we follow "Foriers law" which states

Q= - K A dT/dX

where,

Q =heat transfer or heat flow

A= Area of solid

dT/dX = Temperature Gradient (the change in temperature with respect to distance)

place a metal rod into a fire and the heat is transferred through the rod from one end to the other causing the end not in the fire to get warmer.

use a spoon to stir hot tea. leave the spoon in the hot tea and its handle will get warmer.

Place a pot of water on the stove and turn on the burner under it. The heat of the

burner is conducted through the metal pot to the water, and the water gets warmer.
