Solution

The correct option is C High elasticity

Rubber is water resistant because of which it is used in making hoses.

It is used in things like belts, mats, etc., which are used in our day to day life as it does not corrode due to oxidation.

It is used in making balloons, tyres, etc. as it is highly elastic.

However, it is a poor conductor of electricity.
