When handling a metal pan that has been heated on the stove and oven mitt should always be used to avoid receiving Barnes which of the following is a physical property of the metal paying that requires the use Evan Evan me up when it’s hot a hot thermoconductivity be possibility, see low thermal convection, d low magnetism
The correct physical property of the metal pan that requires the use of an oven mitt when it's hot is thermal conductivity.
The physical property of the metal pan that requires the use of an oven mitt when it's hot is high thermal conductivity.
The physical property of the metal pan that requires the use of an oven mitt when it's hot is its high thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity refers to the ability of a material to conduct heat. In this case, the metal pan has the property of being a good conductor of heat, meaning it can quickly transfer heat from the stove or oven to its surface. Without an oven mitt, touching the metal pan in its heated state can result in burns and injury.
To determine which of the given options is a physical property related to this, let's analyze each one:
a) Thermoconductivity (spelling corrected to thermal conductivity) - This option directly mentions the property we are looking for, as we just discussed. It is the ability of a material to conduct heat.
b) Thermal convection - Although related to heat transfer, thermal convection refers to the process where heat is transferred through the movement of fluid particles (such as air or liquid) due to density differences caused by temperature variations. It is not directly linked to the physical property of the metal pan in this context.
c) Low thermal convection - This contradicts the concept of thermal conductivity, which indicates that the metal pan is a good conductor of heat. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
d) Low magnetism - Magnetism refers to the ability of a material to become magnetized or attract or repel magnetic objects. It is unrelated to thermal conductivity and not relevant to the given situation.
Therefore, the correct answer is option a) thermal conductivity.
