Heat would best be transferred by conduction between

A

a candle and the air.


B

an oven and a glass dish.


C

a stove and a copper pot.


D

water and a wooden spoon.

Verified Answer :

CMetal conducts heat very well. Glass, wood, and air do not conduct as well as metal.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Conduction is a process where transfer of heat occurs when two objects of different temperature are held adjacent to each other. Heat gets transferred from hot substance to cool substance.

For example, when a copper pot is placed over a stove then heat transfers from stove to the copper pot.

Thus, we can conclude that heat would best be transferred by conduction between a stove and a copper pot.
