Practise explaining material uses through conductivity, density, malleability, strength and corrosion resistance.
This question is about metals.
Aluminium is malleable and can be easily shaped to make saucepans used for cooking food.
State two other properties of aluminium that make it suitable for saucepans used for cooking food.
1 ................................
2 ................................
Any two from:
- good conductor of heat / thermal energy
- does not react with food / affect flavour of food
- resistant to corrosion
- high melting point
- low density / lightweight / strong
Allow:
- does not corrode / rust
Ignore:
- non-toxic
- unreactive / inert
- references to recycling
- light
