Which one is an insulator - copper coin aluminum ladder glass or water.?

Glass would be the insulator of the choices given. All the other items are metal (conductors) or water (minerals cause conductivity).


What does conductor mean what does insulator mean?

Is wood plastic glass insulator?

Yes. Wood, plastic, and glass are all indeed an insulator. The reason being is that neither of those conduct energy well. But a few materials that would be very good CONDUCTORS would be copper, tin, or aluminum. Hope that helped ;)


What does conductor and an insulator mean?

A conductor is a material that allows the flow of electricity through it easily, typically metals like copper and aluminum. An insulator is a material that does not allow the flow of electricity through it easily, such as rubber or glass.


Is copper coin insulator?

No. Copper is a very good conductor of electricity.


Rank the following in order from the best conductor to the best insulator?

Copper - best conductor Glass - moderate insulator Rubber - good insulator


Is glass insulator or conductor?

Glass is an insulator, as it DOES NOT conduct current. It is a material which has no free electrons available to flow as electrical current. Conductors, like copper or aluminum, have free electrons, or electrons in the outer shells of their atoms that are easily knocked loose. These electrons flow from negative to positive when an electrical potential (voltage) is applied across the material. We call the flow of electrons "current".


How is a material that is a conductor of electricity different than a material that is an insulator?

Well a conductor attracts electricity like silver, copper, gold and aluminum. But a insulator repels electricity like glass, rubber, oil, and wood. Trust point me if this helped, Thanks!


Is a glass pane a conductor?

No. Glass is used as the OPPOSITE of a conductor- it is an insulator. This is the reason telephone poles used to use glass objects that looked similar to bells to tie the telephone wires to the poles. For a better conductor of energy, look to metals. Aluminum and copper are excellent conductors, as is gold.


What is the ford ka made out of?

Steel, aluminum, plastic, rubber, glass, & copper.


What are of good heat conductors and insulators?

a good conductor would be any sort of metal like copper and an insulator would be rubber or glass


Does aluminum conduct cold faster than glass?

Aluminum is a conductor and glass is an insulator. Conductors allow the flow of energy transfer, but insulators block this transfer of energy. So by definition, Yes, aluminum conducts cold or heat(energy) transfer faster than glass.
