What is the c =Question= What metal conducts heat best? =**Introduction**=

=**Hypothesis**=

I Think that the Stainless steal alloy will heat the fastest.

=**Materials**= = = Copper, Aluminum, Stainless steal alloy, wax, candle, timer,

=Methods= First you heat up the wax then you dip the metal rods into the wax and let it dry.

Then you light the candle with a lighter.

Then you put the metal rod over the candle and start the timer.

Then when the wax falls of u stop the timer and record the time then you so it with the other metal rods. =Results= Material Time

copper 28 sec.

Stainless steal alloy 1:08 sec.

aluminum 32 sec.

=**Conclusions**= I found out that copper conducts heat fastest. =**References**= Peterson, Roger Tory, and Frederick H.
