A manufacturer is considering four different metals for making a pot cooking on a stove. The table shows the thermal conductivity and melting points of each metal. A higher value for thermal conductivity means the material conducts more thermal energy.
Which metals should the manufacturer use for the bottom and for the handle of the pan?
iron for the bottom; stainless steel for the handle
stainless steel for the bottom; copper for the handle
copper for the bottom; stainless steel for the handle
aluminum for the bottom; stainless steel for the handle
A student is conducting an investigation. The table shows results from three samples. Which samples show evidence of chemical change? (Choose ALL that apply.)

The mass decreased.
The bubbling stopped.
The color changed.
The temperature increased.
