What kinds of superconductors are there?
454955
Superconductors conduct electricity with little or no resistance. Organic superconductors contain carbon and are less dense than their ceramic or metallic counterparts; they also offer unusual potential for fine-tuning of electrical properties. Argonne National Laboratory long has carried out the major U.S. effort to synthesize and identify organic superconductors. Nearly 100 new superconductors of this type have been produced, with critical temperatures (at which a superconductor loses all electrical resistance) as high as -260 degrees C, or -434 degrees F. Recently, the first superconductor composed entirely of organic components (with no metal atoms) was synthesized, with a transition temperature in this range. Although this remains far lower than the highest known transition temperature for ceramics, scientists still expect that a high-temperature organic superconductor may be possible, such that liquid nitrogen (at -196 degrees C, or -321 degrees F) could be used as the coolant instead of the more costly liquid helium, thus making practical applications more feasible. The new compound has a two-dimensional, layered structure, which may provide significant insight into the nature of superconductivity.

The obvious answer is black holes. But other kinds are non reflective nebulae and dark matter.

Considering you said 0 degrees without specifying Fahrenheit or Celcius, it seems you don't know much about science.  If the compounds are "no longer active on the molecular level" you're talking about 0 Kelvins, which are not degrees.  There's no such thing as zero degrees Kelvin.  I don't see why you're convinced that electricity would make any difference.  Put simply, the answer to your question is currently No.  Maybe someday we can have some sort of hibernation, but it will probably include hormones or something, not just zapping you.

An example of a conductor (of presumably heat and electricity) are any metal, such as gold, silver, nickel, platinum, iron.\n\nAn example of an insulator is rubber.

You wouldn't want a conductor for a heating coil, conductors aren't supposed to heat. You would want a resistor that would generate heat but still conduct the electricity needed. Nichrome Wire is generally considered the best and most common heating element.

The resistance (ohms) is zero in a superconducting circuit.  Such a circuit will not create a current but will maintain indefinetly a current made in it. Approaching a steady magnet near a superconducting material will induce a current in it. There are projects for accumulating electricity in superconducting loops of many kilometers diameter for peak hours of electricity consommation.

Yes, it is a superconductivity experiment.\n\nTry a Yahoo Search for:\nsuperconductivity experiments\nhttp://search.yahoo.com/search?ei=utf-8&fr=slv1-wdgt&p=superconductivity%20experiments\nsuperconductivity experiment levitating magnet\nhttp://search.yahoo.com/search?ei=utf-8&fr=slv1-wdgt&p=superconductivity%20experiment%20levitating%20magnet\n\nBrowsing around, I found this kit:\nhttp://www.wondermagnet.com/superconductor.html\n\nNote that most of these experiments will require liquid nitrogen which requires care and special handling.  Not sure if you can obtain it very easily. You may want to talk to your science teacher about it.

It cann't be copper 3 oxide.  It simply does not exist.  The charges don't balance!

Look up Tesla Coils on the internet, but be VERY careful with these devices. They are high voltage but a cool science fair project.

copper and aluminum are best electricity conductors. I would say lead, since it's one of the densiest material out there. Heat is caused by vibrating atoms, denser material means the atoms are closer, and it's melting point is low too. As soon as you touch it with a hot soldering iron, the heat transfers right away and melts it.

Matter (116 Elements known so far) (94 of them found elsewhere in the universe, to date) and anti-matter (the same elements but with anti-protons in the nucleus and positrons instead of electrons circling around the nucleus),\n\nWhat are these Elements called?\n\nIn 1959 Tom Lehrer sang the following ditty to a Harvard audience (to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan's I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General)\n\n``There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium, \nAnd hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium \nAnd nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium, \nAnd iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium, \nEuropium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium \nAnd lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium \nAnd gold, protactinium and indium and gallium (inhale) \nAnd iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium. \n\n``There's yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium \nAnd boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium \nAnd strontium and silicon and silver and samarium, \nAnd bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium and barium.  \n\n``There's holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium \nAnd phosphorous and francium and fluorine and terbium \nAnd manganese and mercury, molybdinum, magnesium, \nDysprosium and scandium and cerium and cesium \nAnd lead, praseodymium, and platinum, plutonium, \nPaladium, promethium, potassium, polonium, and \nTantalum, technetium, titanium, tellurium, (inhale) \nAnd cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium. \n\n``There's sulfur, californium and fermium, berkelium \nAnd also mendelevium, einsteinium and nobelium \nAnd argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc and rhodium \nAnd chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, \nTungsten, tin and sodium. \n\n``These are the only ones of which the news has come to Harvard, \nAnd there may be many others but they haven't been discovered.'' \n\n(a few of the 116 eg Seaborgium were discovered after 1959 and are therefore not in the song)\n\nFor a Flash animation of the song go to \nhttp://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html

Metals, Nonmetals, & Metalloids\n\nMost periodic tables contain a stairstep line which allows you to identify which elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Following are descriptions of each of the three types of materials.\n\nMetals\n\nMost elements are metals. 88 elements to the left of the stairstep line are metals or metal like elements.\n\nPhysical Properties of Metals:\n\nLuster (shininess) \nGood conductors of heat and electricity \nHigh density (heavy for their size) \nHigh melting point \nDuctile (most metals can be drawn out into thin wires) \nMalleable (most metals can be hammered into thin sheets) \nChemical Properties of Metals:\n\nEasily lose electrons \nCorrode easily. Corrosion is a gradual wearing away. (Example: silver tarnishing and iron rusting) \nNonmetals\n\nNonmetals are found to the right of the stairstep line. Their characteristics are opposite those of metals.\n\nPhysical Properties of Nonmetals:\n\nNo luster (dull appearance) \nPoor conductor of heat and electricity \nBrittle (breaks easily) \nNot ductile \nNot malleable \nLow density \nLow melting point \nChemical Properties of Nonmetals:\n\nTend to gain electrons \nSince metals tend to lose electrons and nonmetals tend to gain electrons, metals and nonmetals like to form compounds with each other. These compounds are called ionic compounds. When two or more nonmetals bond with each other, they form a covalent compound.\n\nMetalloids\n\nElements on both sides of the zigzag line have properties of both metals and nonmetals. These elements are called metalloids.\n\nPhysical Properties of Metalloids:\n\nSolids \nCan be shiny or dull \nDuctile \nMalleable \nConduct heat and electricity better than nonmetals but not as well as metals

research is currently being carried out on this area. materials which work better at room temperature and have similar properties to a semi conductor are already being developed. giveit another 25-30 years we may have some. who knows.....

That is another one of those "it depends" questions.\n\nSolid, liquid, and gas are the phases know since antiquity.  More recently, plasma has been included in the list.\n\nHowever, there are a number of other "conditions" matter can take, that some scientists consider to be phases, including:\n\nBose-Einstein condensates\nneutronium\nstrange matter\nquark-gluon plasmas\nsuperfluids\n\nAnd the list goes on.  Some of these are theoretical, some can be produced in a laboratory.  And more are being proposed/discovered all the time.\n\nSo, there is no "official" number for phases of matter, because definitions for phases of matter vary.

Hey check this out, I guess there are 7 states.\n\nThese phases include gases, plasmas, liquids, fluids, superfluids, solids, and Bose-Einstein condensates.\n\nSorry about all the rephrasing.

Strong and patented super magnets usually do not or never wear out and do not lose their magnetic charge so permanent use for a long period is guaranteed. Hard chromium coated magnets are known to be good.\n\nThere are also kinds of magnets  like an ordinary ceramic magnets which lose their magnetic charge with time or when exposed to heat. Just be careful in choosing the kind of magnet  itself.♥
