Conduction is usually faster/slower in liquids and certain solids than in gases.
materials that are good conductors of thermal energy are
metals are excellent/poor thermal conductors.
me?

Conduction is slower in liquids and gases.

Liquids it is convection which transmits more heat.. quicker...

Materials which are good conductors of thermal energy are called thermal conductors.

metals are good thermal conductors.

Texture and composition are different because they are not the same aspect. texture has to do with feel and so on, where as composition is the chemical makeup which you cant touch like you can texture.
