A material that conducts heat poorly is a good?
Insulator
What is a material that conducts electricity poorly?
An insulator. (i.e. glass)
How well a material conducts heat?
The property of a substance called the thermal conductivity indicates how well or how poorly a substance conducts heat. Insulating materials have a thermal conductivity around 0.02 to 0.08 Btu per hr - ft - F degree. A good conductor of heat like steel pipe has a thermal conductivity of about 24 Btu per hr - ft - F degree.
What is the name of a substance that conducts heat and electricity poorly and is brittle and is waxy or gaseous and cannot be hammered into thin sheets of metal?
insulator; I think porcelain.hopefully.
Which form of Carbon is a good conductor of electricity and heat?
Graphite is the type of carbon that conducts electricity but poorly than metal
A material that conducts heat poorly is a good?
Insulator
What material conducts thermal energy poorly is a?
thermal insulator
What is a material that conducts electricity poorly?
An insulator. (i.e. glass)
Material that condscts thermal energy well?
a conductor does, while an insulator poorly conducts thermal energy!
A material that conducts thermal energy poorly?
A material that doesn't conduct heat well is called an insulator.
What is the name of an element that conducts heat and electricity poorly?
an insulator
How does electrolyzers use electrolytes to make water into gas?
Water is split into hydrogen and oxygen gas in a process called electrolysis in which an electric current is passed through water. Pure water conducts electricity very poorly, so adding electrolytes allows a small current to flow through the water easily. Hydrogen and oxygen gas then bubble up from the electrodes in the water.
An element that conducts heat and electricity poorly and that does not form positive ions in an electrolytic solution?
nonmetals
What are three kinds of matter that conducts heat poorly?
Things that are nonmetal conduct heat poorly. These insulators would include plastic, rubber, Styrofoam and wood. This is due to the characteristics of the materials.
What pot would be hotter A pot with a metal handle or a wooden handle?
The handle made of metal will be hotter, since metal conducts heat very well, and wood conducts heat very poorly.
