Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Ceramics are made of clay, silica or compounds of metallic and non-metallic elements.
Ceramics are substances that show chemical resistance to oxygen, acids, bases, salts, water and strong solvents. It is due to these qualities, ceramics are used for making dishes, spoons and bowls as foods contain acids, water, and salts. Therefore, ceramic tableware is not damaged by contact with foods containing these substances.
Conclusion: Ceramics are used to make tableware, as they are chemically resistant.
