Question

Why is it that when you try to burn metal & wood, same size wrapped with paper, paper-wrapped metal burns 1st?

Answer 1

Metal is a good conductor of heat as it has mobile electrons to aid in the transfer of heat, thus it transfer heat to the paper faster than the wood which is a poor conductor of heat that is why metal wrapped with paper burn first

Answer 2

This is because metal is a good conductor of heat n wood is an insulator.MEtal conducts by free electron lattice.Briefly the heat reach the metal first i mean metal absorbs more heat than wood

Answer 3

Actually

Metal is a good conductor of heat as it has mobile electrons to aid in the transfer of heat, thus it transfer heat to the paper faster than the wood which is a poor conductor of heat that is why metal wrapped with paper burn first
