Question

45. Give a reason why

Aluminum and copper metals are used to make electric wires.

Answer 1

Aluminum and copper $\left(\mathrm{Cu}\right)$ both are metals and are used to make electric wires due to the following reasons:

• They are good conductors of electricity and allow current to pass through them easily.
• They both are ductile i.e. they can be easily drawn or stretched into thin wires without breaking.
• They are also cheap in price.

Hence, aluminum and copper metals are used to make electric wires.
