Question

Give reason : An iron chair feels colder than a wooden chair in winter

Open in App
Solution

A chair made of iron appears colder because iron being a good conductor of heat, it looses its heat to the surrounding at night. But the wooden chair remains the same because wood is a bad conductor of heat and so no heat is lost from it.
