Question

is tungesten a poor conductor of heat​

Answer 1

Answer:

it can whickstand high temperature so it is poor condictor of heat

Answer 2

Explanation:

It's a good conductor because it's molecules are arranged in a lattice. In simple words they are highly organized with each one at a specific distance from the other. But the valence electrons of these atoms are free to move around the metal. So when you heat a tungsten the electrons absorb that heat energy and start moving faster. These electrons move randomly so when they move they transfer energy making them a good conductor.

Terms

Lattice- the form of molecular arrangement that metals get into.

Valence Electron- are electrons that are farthest from the nucleus of the atom and easiest to remove.
