Gold Is Better Conductor

Gold Is Better Conductor

Elements introducing themselves by their practical uses is peak chemistry humor! While oxygen sustains life and uranium generates energy, copper boasts about its electrical conductivity (which is actually impressive at 5.96×10^7 S/m). Then there's gold—technically a better conductor than copper—but instead of bragging about its superior conductivity of 4.10×10^7 S/m, it's just flexing its bling factor. The irony? Gold IS actually the better conductor in many applications because it doesn't corrode, but it's too busy being fabulous to mention that practical benefit. Classic noble metal behavior!
