Which one of these materials is most likely to conduct heat?
A)A titanium rod
B)A sample of chlorine gas
C)A silicon wafer
D)A chunk of phosphorus

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Metals such as titanium are the best conductors of heat because they have free electrons that can readily transfer heat energy. Chlorine gas and silicon wafer are poor conductors of heat because they have no free electrons to transfer heat, and phosphorus is a semiconductor which has limited ability to conduct heat.
