Good electrical conducter?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

think of things you wouldn't want to stick in a light socket

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm like a really good one because I want it to go through dirt so it needs to be a pretty good one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Metals are good conductors and copper is one of the best.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ultimate is " GOLD" is top 1 good conductor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Jay4physics Actually Silver is the best conductor of the elements beating gold's conductivity by by about 50%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i heared about gold is better then good silver in conductivity.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Jay4physics Really It is just hearsay, The resisitivity of Silver is 1.59x10-8 ohm-m and that of Gold is 2.44x10-8 ohm-m. just a little better than Aluminum.
