A cooking vessel must meet these conditions:
1) The vessel material should be a good conductor of heat.
2) The vessel material should not corrode.
3) The handle material should be a bad conductor of heat.
Which combination of materials is the best choice?

Answer: C. Vessel - Stainless steel, Handle - Wood

Stainless steel is used for the vessel because it conducts heat well and, unlike iron, it is non-corrosive (won't rust).
Wood is the ideal handle material because it is a poor conductor (insulator), keeping it cool and safe to touch.
Option C is the correct choice because it is the only one that satisfies all three safety and functional requirements.
