Which of the following factors affect the thermal conductivity of a rod?

Rate of flow of heat through a cylindrical rod is $H_1$. The temperatures at the ends of the rod are $T_1$ and $T_2$. If all the dimensions of the rod become double and the temperature difference remains the same,the rate of flow of heat becomes $H_2$. Then:

The thermal conductivities of copper,mercury,and glass are $K_c$,$K_m$,and $K_g$ respectively,such that $K_c > K_m > K_g$. If the same amount of heat flows per unit time through a unit cross-sectional area for each,what is the relationship between their temperature gradients $(X_c, X_m, X_g)$?
