Question

Which materials would be the best insulators for a handle on a pot or pan that is used on the stove?

a
wood or rubber
b
metal or rubber
c
copper or steel
d
wood or steel

Answer 1

b) metal or rubber

Metal has poor insulating properties and can become very hot when exposed to heat, so it is not a good choice for a handle on a pot or pan that is used on the stove. Rubber, on the other hand, is a good insulator and can help protect your hand from the heat of the pot or pan. So, the best choice for a handle on a pot or pan used on the stove would be a combination of metal for durability and rubber for insulation.
