The Conductivity of Various Metals

Post by Trog »

I found this quite interesting. I always thought that gold was more conductive than silver but gold takes third place according to this chart.
Aluminium is higher than I thought and brass, even though it contains a high volume of copper, is lower than I assumed it would be.
