Convection heat transfer creates currents and cannot occur in solids. Convection involves the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases) due to differences in temperature and density. This process helps distribute heat in fluids, such as air and water.
Convection relies on the movement of fluid particles, such as air or water, to transfer heat. Since solids do not have freely moving particles like fluids, convection cannot take place within them. Heat transfer in solids typically occurs through conduction, where heat is transferred through the vibration of atoms or molecules.
Convection occurs in liquids and gases because the particles are free to move and can transfer heat energy through the bulk movement of the fluid. In solids, particles are closely packed and cannot move freely to transfer heat by convection. Heat in solids is primarily transferred through conduction, where thermal energy is passed through direct contact between particles.
Convection requires the movement of a fluid, such as a liquid or gas, to transfer heat. In solids, the particles are tightly packed and cannot move freely like in fluids, making it difficult for convection currents to form. Heat in solids is typically transferred through conduction, where vibrations of particles pass heat energy from one particle to another.
Some waves can transfer energy only through liquids and solids, but not through gases or vacuum. Some waves, like sound waves, can transfer energy through gases, liquids and solids but not through vacuum. And some waves, notably electromagnetic waves, can transfer energy through vacuum as well as matter.
No, heat transfer by convection requires the movement of fluids to transfer heat. Since solids do not have the ability to flow like fluids, heat transfer by convection does not typically occur in solids. Heat transfer in solids usually occurs through conduction, where heat is transferred through the vibration of particles.

Transfer pipettes, also called Pasteur pipettes, are used to transfer small quantities of liquid from one container to another. They cannot be used to move a specific volume, they are just used for approximations. The only time they would be used to transfer solids would be solids suspended in a liquid solution.

Conduction: Transfer of heat in solids Convection: Transfer of heat in liquid and gases (convection currents are the motion of which the heat travels in, see hot air balloon's) Radiation: Transfer of heat through vacuum (space i.e no particles)
Matter doesn't move easily in solids.
the process of transfer of heat energy in solids is known as conduction.. For more info-- the process of transfer of heat energy in liquids and gases is known as convection.. And the process of transfer of heat energy without any material medium is known as radiation..
Because the atoms do not move around. The whole idea of convection is that 'groups' of things move about. In the case of heat convection these moving groups take or bring their heat with them.
