What is the best substance that to conduct heat?
Actually diamond is the best conductor of heat, and a diamond film substrate is used as a heat conductor in some microprocessors. Silver and copper are the metals more commonly used as heat conductors because of cost.
Why is ceramic a good material for making cooker hob?
Because it is a poor conductor of heat
Is a cable cover a good heat conductor?
Not usually. They tend to be made of plastic material. They will melt but do not conduct heat well
What are materials called which allow heat through?

Is a silver bracelet a conductor or insulator?
Silver is the best conductor there is, no matter what it is made into.
What kind of material is a best conductor of heat?
Metals.
What material best transfer heat?
Metals are known to be good conductors of heat as well as good conductors of electricity. Diamond is an exception though, being one of the best thermal conductors but a very poor electrical conductor.
Is the sun the best conductor of heat?
The sun is not really a conductor of heat, it is agenerator of heat (via a very large and sustained thermonuclear reaction). A conductor of heat is normally a material that allows heat to be transfered through its body; examples of good heat conductors are aluminium and copper
Is a styrofoam a good conducter of heat or a bad conductor of heat?
It is a bad conductor of heat, that is why it is used as an insulating material.
Which material has the poorest conductor of heat?
Glass
Is the Mercury is the best conductor of heat?
It's not, there are materials that are better, like diamond.
Is water a best conductor of heat?
Not exactly. That is why it warms up with heat. A good conductor of heat like copper or iron is best conductor in comparision to water.
What is a conducted?
A material which is a good conductor of electricity or heat.
What are the best conductors of heat or electricity?
The best conductor of electricity is Silver, while the best conductor heat is helium (in its Helium II state), but some people consider diamond as the best heat conductor.
