How will you show experimentally that metals are a good conductor of heat
Answers
Experiment
take a knife and butter its sides well. take a candle and light it. hold just the tip of the candle over the flame. we will notice that the butter on all sides start to melt in a short time and drips down. thus we see that metals get heated up faster i.e. they are good conductors of heat
Hope it helps u
Metals are very good conductor of electricity.
These are the following examples/experiments that justifies that metals are good conductors of electricity:
- Take an iron rod and burn it on a candle, as time passes you will feel that the other end you are holding from will get hot.
- Hold an iron handle of pot while it is placed on stove
Reason: Metals are good conductors because of the close packing of atoms in metals as well the free electrons that can carry kinetic energy.
