Why does a piece Why does a piece of metal feel cold of metal feel cold but a piece of wood but a piece of wood at the same at the same temperature feels temperature feels warm?warm?
Answer: The metal conducts heat away from the hands but wood stops heat flowing from the hand.
Experiment to show conduction of heatExperiment to show conduction of heat
Attach some drawing Attach some drawing pins to a metal rod pins to a metal rod using Vaseline.using Vaseline.
Heat the rod with a Heat the rod with a Bunsen flame – when Bunsen flame – when the heat reaches the the heat reaches the pins the Vaseline melt pins the Vaseline melt and the pins fall off. and the pins fall off.
Showing conductionShowing conduction
The experiment showed The experiment showed how heat was conducted how heat was conducted through a metal rod.through a metal rod.
There are moving particles (electrons) inside the metal – the faster they move the higher the temperature – they bump into each other to allow the heat to flow through the metal.
Liquids are poor conductors of heat [insulators].
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES
What about gases?
Carefully put your finger 1cm away from a Bunsen burner flame.If gases were good conductors, you’d burn your finger - you don’t.Gases are good insulators.
Conduction
Copy this summary table into your book :
Material Conductor or Insulator ?
Metals very good conductors
Non-metals Insulators
Liquids Insulators
Gases Good insulators
Vacuum Excellent insulator
