A ceramic plate has a shiny rim. The ceramic plate is mostly composed of silicon and oxygen atoms. The shiny rim is mostly silver. When the plate is heated in a microwave oven, sparks are observed. Compare the ionization energy values of silver to those of the silicon and oxygen atoms. Explain what is happening in the oven. Why are microwaveable containers usually non-metallic? Why are most pots and pans metallic?
