Why can't a metal mug containing very hot tea be held comfortably while a porcelain cup can be?

The metal of the mug is a better conductor of heat than the porcelain cup, which has a porous interior. This means that the tea in the cup will lose its heat more slowly than in a metal mug. The lower specific heat of the porcelain also means that the heat energy it does absorb from the liquid will not be as great, and can be dissipated more readily by the skin.Most metal cups will have two layers with foam or airspace between the inner and outer layers.


Can you put porcelain in a preheated oven?

No! Porcelain is a clay mixture fired in a kiln that is commonly called "china" because the mixture/process was first invented in that country. It is delicate and contains metallic elements that will heat up quickly and break the porcelain when in contact with heat. Also, porcelain china should not be used in a microwave because of the metal elements.
