Answer :-
• Thermal conductivity is the ability of a material to conduct heat, and it represents the quantity of thermal energy that flows per unit time through a unit area with a temperature gradient of 1° per unit distance.
• It is generally denoted by the symbol ‘k’ but can also be denoted by ‘λ’ and ‘κ’.
• The reciprocal of this quantity is known as thermal resistivity.
• Materials with high thermal conductivity are used in heat sinks whereas materials with low values of λ are used as thermal insulators.
