If a metal has a specific heat, then the metal could make an excellent material for cookware because

a. it can absorb much more heat before the temperature increases.
b. it maintains a constant temperature.
c. it takes less heat to raise the temperature of the metal.
d. it will not burn food.

C) Because it takes less heat to raise the temperature of the metal

Explanation:

A) No. Metals have low specific heats compared to other solids thus they would absorb less heat in order to increase the temperature

B) No. Since they have lower specific heats they are more vulnerable to temperature changes due to variations in the heat rate

C) Yes. It takes less heat to raise the temperature of water due to their lower specific heats

D) No. Because the temperature can be chosen regulating the heat rate to the cookware. Also food burning is related with thermal conduction of cookware and from the cookware to food.

as technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. c
