What else can I help you with?
Does germanium conduct heat?
Yes, germanium does conduct heat. It is a semiconductor material that can conduct both heat and electricity, although not as efficiently as metals. Germanium is commonly used in electronics and thermal imaging devices due to its ability to conduct heat.
Can all fluids conduct heat?
No, not all fluids can conduct heat. Some fluids, like air and oil, are poor conductors of heat while others, like water and metals, are good conductors of heat. The ability of a fluid to conduct heat depends on its molecular structure and physical properties.
What is the relationship between the reflectivity of metals and their ability to efficiently conduct heat and light?
The reflectivity of metals is directly related to their ability to efficiently conduct heat and light. Metals that are highly reflective tend to be good conductors of heat and light, as they are able to reflect and transmit these forms of energy effectively. Conversely, metals with low reflectivity may not conduct heat and light as efficiently.
Do all objects equally conduct or absorb heat?
No. The ability to conduct heat (known as thermal conductivty) is a unique property of a substance. Metals, for instance, typically conduct heat better than nonmetals. But diamond is the best thermal conductor of all. The ability to absorb heat (known as specific heat) is likewise unique for different substances.
What type of materials are better for transferring heat?
Materials with high thermal conductivity, such as metals like copper and aluminum, are better for transferring heat. These materials are able to quickly and efficiently conduct heat from one area to another. Insulating materials, on the other hand, are better at preventing heat transfer.
Elemets that conduct heat and electricity well?
Metals, although some conduct heat & electricity better than others.
Do metals or non metals conduct heat better?
Metals are better conductors and non-metals are better insulators. Metalloids can be either a conductor or an insulator, it depends on the object.
What are the two things metal can conduct?
All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.
Does metal conduct more heat than plastic?
Yes, metals are better conductors of heat than plastic.
Can phosphorus conduct heat?
Yes, but not very well. All substances can conduct heat, but some are better than others.
What materials conduct heat and which do not?
Insulators do not conduct heat and are therefore non-metals. Metals do conduct heat, and vey well may i add. But, for the record, you're thinking of electricity. Potatoes conduct heat, and they're not metals. Anyone who has held a lump in their hand will tell you that playdough conducts heat, in fact, rather a lot of other materials conduct heat and water also conduct heat
Do metals conduct heat?

Which metal does not conduct heat?
None. All metals conduct heat to some degree.
Are all types of metal conductors?
No, not all types of metals are conductors. Only metals that have free electrons in their atomic structure are good conductors of electricity. Examples of good conductors include copper, silver, and gold.
What is the control for determining what metals are the best conductors of heat?
You can use any metal as a control, like steel. The experiment then becomes, "what metals conduct heat better than steel?"
Does germanium conduct heat?
Yes, germanium does conduct heat. It is a semiconductor material that can conduct both heat and electricity, although not as efficiently as metals. Germanium is commonly used in electronics and thermal imaging devices due to its ability to conduct heat.
Does metal conduct heat well?
yes. metals conduct heat and electric current well.
