The use of fiberglass insulation in the outer walls of a building is intended to minimize heat transfer through the wall by what process?
a) conduction
b) radiation
c) convection
d) vaporization

Respuesta :

Answer:

A, conduction.

Explanation:

Thermal conduction, by definition, is "a phenomenon  that occurs through the interaction of neighboring atoms and molecules, transferring their energy/heat (partially) to their neighbors". Fiberglass insulation works mainly by preventing thermal conduction, as would a rubber handle of a pot on a hot stove.

Hope this helps!
