Question

Most metallic elements, such as copper

and iron, have high melting points. This
is a useful property because

F. it keeps cars made of metal from
becoming hot on summer days

G. it enables people to use pots and pans
made of metal to cook food

H. it prevents machine parts made of
metal from rusting

J. it makes metals easier to melt so they
can be poured into molds to make
precision tools

Answer 1

G. it enables people to use pots and pans made of metal to cook food

Step-by-step explanation:

Metals are known to be substances with a relative high melting point, which means that it takes a very high temperature to melt them. As used in this question, copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) at metallic elements that have high melting points.

One advantage of this property based on the options provided is that "it enables people to use pots and pans made of metal to cook food". This is because cooking food requires subjecting them to a constant temperature from a heat source e.g cooker or stove.

The material used to hold the food being cooked must possess a very high melting point to withstand the heat, hence, the importance of these metallic substances. Most pots and pans are made of steel, an alloy of iron, hence, they have high melting point.
