a. Which among iron and mercury is a better conductor?
 
The is the . Hence, iron is considered a better conductor than mercury.

b. Which material is the best conductor?
 
 is the best conductor among all the other materials because its resistivity is \(\times{10^{-8}}\) which is among all the materials.
