When you touch a hot metal spoon, heat energy is transferred from the spoon to your finger through a process called conduction. The metal spoon has a higher temperature than your skin, causing rapid heat transfer. This sudden increase in temperature stimulates the pain receptors in your skin, resulting in the sensation of burning. The higher the temperature of the spoon and the longer the contact, the more severe the burning sensation will be.
