Conduction is when __________________________________________________.

Back

heat is transferred by direct contact of particles of matter

Front

In conduction, heat can be transferred through materials. For example, heat flows by conduction from hot chocolate _______________ the spoon and ________ your hand.

through, to

Front

Why do solids make the best conductors?

Back

Their particles are packed closely together.

Examples of thermal insulators, which conduct heat poorly, are:
