because wood isnt a conductor, as there are no free electrons to transfer the heat energy from one end to another.

the heat energy remains in one place, hence the wood burns

An object that does not conduct heat well?

An example of an object that does not conduct heat well is wood. Wood is a poor conductor of heat because of its low thermal conductivity, which means it does not easily transfer heat energy through its structure. This property makes wood a good insulator for maintaining temperature levels in buildings.

Wood is not a conductor of heat and so is plastic whereas metal is the perfect conductor for heat


What are insulators of heat?

The substances that don't conduct heat through them are called as 'insulators of heat'. Eg - Plastic, Wood etc.


Which meterial not conduct the heat?

Materials with poor thermal conductivity, like wood, rubber, and styrofoam, do not conduct heat efficiently. These materials have high resistance to the flow of heat energy, which makes them good insulators.

Can pine conduct heat?

No, pine wood is not a good conductor of heat. It has a low thermal conductivity, which means it does not transfer heat easily.


What is an example of thermal conduct?

Heat Sink; metals (like a spoon) conduct heat faster that wood (wooden spoon). You can learn this the hard way on your gas grill.
