Explanation:

  1. Metals are good conductors of heat.
  2. Whereas, wood, being a non-metallic material is a poor conductor of heat.
  3. As a result, metallic pans catch heat and become hot when food is cooked in them.
  4. To avoid accidents such as burns on touching a hot metallic pan, handles of metallic pans are made using non- metallic, poor conductors of heat like wood.

Hope you got that.

Thank You.

Answer:

To avoid burns

Explanation:

The valence  band and conduction band of metals overlap with each other. So electrons can easily reach the conduction band and therefore metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. So if we use handles made up of metal itself, the heat it will cause burn in our hands. So we use wooden handles which is an insulator so that the heat does not get conducted o the handle
