What I find really interesting is the relationship between conducting 'electricity" and conducting heat. Why is the property of electrical conductivity closely correlated with the property of heat conductivity?

- Retric 17y agoI think the most general answer is density, but there are actually several indecent properties’ that change the rate of the propagation of both heat and electricity. Copper becomes a better electrical conductor as it cools. However, hydrogen is a far better conductor as plasma than as a cooler gas. Yet heating things tends to increase their ability to conduct heat.
