5. the transfer of energy
(a) Conduction
Conduction occurs when heat moves through solid substances. Take a length of wire and hold it over a flame. What do you discover after a little while?

The heat was transferred to your hand by means of conduction. Metals like copper, iron and aluminium are better conductors of heat than non-metals such as wood, water and cork. Particular metals also conduct heat faster than others.

Assessment
Learning Outcome 2: The learner will know and be able to interpret and apply scientific, technological and environmental knowledge.
Assessment Standard 2.3: We know this when the learner interprets information by identifying key ideas in text, finding patterns in recorded data, and making inferences from information in various forms (e.g. pictures, diagrams, text).
