An example of a conductor (of presumably heat and electricity) are any metal, such as gold, silver, nickel, platinum, iron.
An example of an insulator is rubber.

Examples Of Conductors

That's a really interesting question. Almost any material is a conduction (of electricity). In fact, most materials are also conductors of thermal energy as well. The interesting factor is the degree to which a material conducts electricity. WHen you apply an electrical voltage at 2 points on a material, an electrical current flows from one to the other. If a relatively large amount of current flows then the material is said to conduct well. Things that conduct it well are called conductors and those that conduct it poorly are called insulators. Most metals conduct it well so they would be examples of conductors. Silver is particuarly conductive as is copper. Things like glass and most common plastics (and of course rubber) conduct poorly so they are insulators. Water conducts poorly if it is pure but it conducts fairly will if it has something like salt (or just dirt) disolved in it. The only real insulator is a vacuum.

Gold ,silver, copper, mercury, in fact most metals are conductors, very salty water is better than distilled water, damp air conducts better than dry air think about lightning in a storm.
Insulators:- bigger distance between poles of current + &- then rubber most plastics dry wood . that should keep you occupied for some time.

water,aluminum,gold,silver,mercury,copper,METALS are examples of conductor..............now give at least 10 examples of insulator PLS
