Assertion (A) : Alloys are commonlyused in electrical heating devices like electric iron and heater. Reason (R ) : Resistivity of an alloy is generally higher than that of its constituent metals but the alloys have low melting points than their constituent metals.

1.	Assertion (A) : Alloys are commonlyused in electrical heating devices like electric iron and heater. Reason (R ) : Resistivity of an alloy is generally higher than that of its constituent metals but the alloys have low melting points than their constituent metals.
Answer» Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is correct EXPLANATION of the assertion. Both (A) and (R ) are true but (R ) is not the correct explanation of the assertion. (A) is true but (R ) is false. (A) is false but (R ) is true. Solution :(A) is true but (R ) is false. Reistivity of an ALLOY is GENERALLY HIGHER than that of its constituent metals and the alloys do not oxidize EASILY at high temperatures.
