It really depends. Glass, for example, does a fair job at conducting heat, but it is an insulator to electricity, which is why it is usually used for the insulators on power lines. Metal, on the other hand, is usually a conductor of electricity, and a conductor of heat as well, so it depends.

Is rubber a good conductor of heat?

No, rubber is not a good conductor of heat. It is a poor conductor of heat because it is a good insulator, meaning it does not allow heat to pass through it easily. This property makes rubber useful for applications where heat insulation is required.


Is helium a good conductor or poor conductor?

Is Toothpaste conductor or insulator?

Toothpaste is an insulator. It does not conduct electricity well because it is not a good conductor of heat or electricity.


Is nitrogen a good insulator of heat?

Nitrogen is not a good insulator of heat. It is a poor conductor of heat, but it is not an effective insulator as it does not trap heat well and can easily transfer heat through convection or conduction.


Is clay a good conductor of heat?

No, clay is not a good conductor of heat. It is considered to be an insulator, meaning it does not easily transfer heat.


Is a pencil a good conductor of heat?

No, a pencil is not a good conductor of heat because it is made of graphite, which is a poor conductor of heat. Heat will not travel easily through a pencil, making it a good insulator rather than a conductor of heat.
