Best Answer

You should use a wooden spoon when cooking on a hob instead of metal utensils as the metal utensils get very hot .Wood doesnt get very hot as it is a bad conductor of heat this means it has good properties as a utensil where as metal is a very good conductor of heat and gets hot very quickly . If you leave ametal utensil in a pan by accident remove it wearing oven gloves as it could be very hot !!

Why does energy transfer from a hob to a spoon?

The heat energy is transferred from the hob to the metal spoon through conduction; this is where particles that vibrate a lot due to their heat energy then 'pass on' these vibrations to the next adjacent particle which does the same and so on. Metals are a good conductor of heat so that is why the metal spoon gets hot, however, wood is not a good conductor of heat and so the wooden saucepan handle doesn't get hot.

How do you clean a cooking pan with baked on sugar?

To clean baked on sugar off a pan, if it is safe to use on a hob/stove top/element fill it with water above the level of the material to be removed and bring to a simmer(low boil). Keep it at a simmer and top up the water as required. Scrape or scrub away at the material as it softens or loosens. This may take some time. Use a heat resistant scrubbing pad and a utensil to push it under the hot water (such as a wooden spoon). Be careful not to splash the boiling water.
