A good conductor is a substance that will easily carry loose ions, also known as electricity. Many metals are good conductors. Conductors have many modern applications. Any wire that carries an electrical current has to be a conductor of some sort. On the contrary, substances that do not conduct electricity are known as insulators. Rubber is a very common insulator.

∙ 14y agoA good conductor of heat would be metal, this is because when there is heat around it, it carries it and passes it on. :D

What causes something to be a conductor?
It can't be caused. A good conductor is something like a metal, the best conductor of heat is gold. If you have ever touched metal that has been in the sun, it's really hot because it is a good conductor of heat. A bad conductor is something like wood because it doesn't get hot. We can't tell it wood has been in the sun for a while.
Is good heat conductor a metal?
If you mean, is metal a good conductor of heat, yes. That is one of the characteristics of a metal.
What is a globe or conductor or insulator?
You mean our earth? Earth globe is a good conductor of electricity.
If something is conductor of heat does it lose heat fast or slow-?
If something is a good conductor of heat then it will lose heat slowly. If something is a poor conductor of heat it will lose heat quickly.
Is fat a good conductor of heat?
Yes it is good because you won't be cold inside but that does not mean you have to eat lots of food to be fat it is something that is inside of you that you have meat in it to not be cold.
What it meant by good conductor?
.Something that carries something better than average. For example, copper is a good conductor of electricity. Iron is a good conductor of heat.
How would you descibe a good conductor?
Something that conducts electricity with little resistance. one really good conductor is metal.

If something is a good conductor of heat then it will lose heat slowly. If something is a poor conductor of heat it will lose heat quickly.
What is a conductor in the scientific way?
A conductor is something that can carry the electrons (electricity) through it. An example is copper. That is why copper is used for wiring. it is a good conductor.
Is fat a good conductor of heat?
Yes it is good because you won't be cold inside but that does not mean you have to eat lots of food to be fat it is something that is inside of you that you have meat in it to not be cold.
What does non conductor mean in a scientific way?
A non conductor is something that cannot conduct electricity or an electrical charge
Is the earth a good conductor?
yeah earth is good conductor of electricity for a little area but not the whole only it conducts something to a specific small area.
If something is conductor of heat does it lose heat fast or slow?
If something is a good conductor of heat, it heats up faster and loses heat at a slower rate.
What are good conductor?
Metal, and Copper are good examples of conductors.
