Yes. Iron can conduct electricity. It is not as good a conductor of electricity as copper but it can conduct electricity. If you see a train or high speed rail with two wires hanging over the track, the top wire is a copper wire and the bottom wire is an iron wire. The copper wire conducts the electricity with very little loss of electricity. The iron wire is able to pass the electricity on to the train while withstanding a lot of wear and tear.

What is a dielectric pesticide?
This is a pesticide that will not conduct electricity. It is important because wasps and other insects will make nests near electrical lines. If the pesticide conducts electricity, it could cause a short.
Which is purer wrought or pig iron?
Pig iron is generally an intermediate product of the wrought iron and steel making process. Pig iron is virtually useless due to the very high impurity content. "Pure" is a strange quantification of the comparison between pig iron and wrought iron. Pig iron is pure pig iron and wrought iron is pure wrought iron if there is a "standard" for the respective materials. I'm guessing that the answer you want is that wrought iron is "more pure."
Iron found in animal products is called?
Heme iron
Which is not a non-renewable resource lumber iron chicken cotton?
Of these, iron in a non-renewable resource. You cannot grow more iron if you run out. There is only as much iron as the earth has now, there will be no more.
Production of Pig Iron?
Pig iron is regular iron. The "pig" part is from an older method of producing the molten iron. It was poured into a trough on the floor, and spread out into multiple side-troughs. After cooling, these side-troughs and main trough were broken up and shipped off. Diagram of cooling-troughs: I I I I I I I I I I I I -----+----+----+-----+----+----+---------- I I I I I I I I I I I I Do you see it? the center trough (------) looks like a mother PIG, and the side-troughs (I) are the PIGLETS nursing on her side. See Wikipedia for explanation of why pig iron is a low quality form of iron.
Does iron conduct electricity well?
yes
Can iron ore conduct electricity?
No, but some types of iron-ore have a permanent magnetic field.
Does iron and copper conduct electricity well together?
Iron and copper do not conduct electricity well together due to their dissimilar properties. Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity, while iron is a poorer conductor. It is not common to mix these two metals in electrical applications.
Will iron conduct electricity?
yes
Can iron conduct electricity as a liquid?
Iron melts and becomes liquid at an 2800 degrees Fahrenheit. It can still conduct electricity, but, like all conductors, it conducts better at lower temperatures.
What elements conduct electricity at room temperature?
Metals such as copper, silver, and gold conduct electricity well at room temperature. Other elements like aluminum, iron, and nickel also conduct electricity, although not as well as the aforementioned metals.
Explain why do copper and iron conduct electricity?
Copper and iron conduct electricity due to the presence of free electrons in their atomic structure. These free electrons can move freely within the material, allowing for the flow of electric current. This property makes copper and iron good conductors of electricity.
Does an iron nail conduct electricity?
Yes they do, they have approximately .3 volts of conductivity.
Does iron conduct static electricity?
no <<>> Any metallic material will conduct static electricity.
Do all planets conduct electricity?
Planets themselves probably do not conduct electricity, although it is likely that most planets do contain some conductive materials. The vast majority of the matter on the Earth does not conduct electricity very well, although large deposits of iron, silver, gold and copper all _DO_ conduct electricity.
Is iron conductive elements?
Yes- iron is a metal, and all metals conduct electricity.
Do ionic compounds form solutions that conduct electricity well?
That's right, solutions of ionic compounds do conduct electricity well.
