c) wood or rubber would be the best insulators for a handle on a pot or pan that is used on the stove, as they have low thermal conductivity and would not transfer heat easily to the user's hand.

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

The best choice for an insulator material for a handle on a pot or pan used on the stove would be option c: wood or rubber. Both wood and rubber have low thermal conductivity, which means they are less likely to transfer heat from the stove to the handle, reducing the risk of burns or discomfort when touching the handle. Copper, steel, and metal are known to have high thermal conductivity and can quickly become hot when exposed to heat.
