  • Question
  • Which metal is the best conductor of heat?


  • Options
  • A. Silver
  • B. Gold
  • C. Copper
  • D. All of the above

  • Correct Answer
  • All of the above 

    Explanation

    Silver is the best conductor of both heat and electricity among metals with a thermal conduction value of about 430 W/(mK).

    Gold and copper both come respectably close to silver.

     

    Copper being significantly less costly it is often chosen over silver in many applications.
