the result of collisions between molecules; when one end of an object is heated, the molecules vibrate faster and the energy is transferred to their neighbors. Definition for Conduction :1. Thermal conduction the transfer of heat between two solid materials that are physically touching each other.2. Electrical conduction the transfer of electrical current through a solid or liquid.Definition for Conduction Band :A partially filled band or a band of vacant energy levels just higher in energy than a filled band; a band within which, or into which, electrons must be promoted to allow electrical conduction to occur in a solid.
