Solution

The correct option is A True
A fusible alloy is a metal alloy capable of being easily fused, i.e. easily meltable, at relatively low temperatures. The most widely used fusible alloys contain high percentages of bismuth, combined with lead, tin, cadmium, indium and other metals. Bismuth has an impact on the melting point, as well as the growth and shrinkage characteristics of the alloys.
