D)

Gas

Answer 1

In a cooking context, the best heat conductor among the options provided is:

B) Iron

Iron is a solid metal with good thermal conductivity, making it effective for transferring heat in cookware. Glass, while used in cooking, is not as good at conducting heat. Dense liquids can conduct heat, but typically not as efficiently as solid metals. Gases are the least effective at conducting heat.
