Jasmine is a cook, and she wants to buy new equipment. she is presented with dishes made of copper, clay, plastic, and glass. she selects the copper pot because she does most of her cooking on the stove. which explains why she most likely chose copper?
a. copper is shiny and reflects light, which will cook the food.
b. copper is malleable and can be manipulated to cook food.
c. copper is ductile and can be stretched to cook the food.
d. copper is conductive and will absorb heat to cook the food.

Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Copper is a transition metal and it is a very good conductor. This means that copper metal has the ability to let electric current pass through it.

Hence, when food is cooked in a copper pot then copper metal is able to absorb the heat from the stove gas. Therefore, it let this heat to pass on to the food.

Whereas a plastic dish will melt upon heating resulting in the formation of unbearable or poisonous fumes. Glass and clay dish will act as an insulator and hence, food will not be cooked easily.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement copper is conductive and will absorb heat to cook the food, best explains why she most likely chose copper.

the answer is a for sure mark brainliest i had got this right on usatestprep
