Question:

Assertion (A) : Copper wires are used as connecting wires in electrical circuit as its resistivity is low and connectivity is high.

Reason (R) : Copper can be easily drawn into wires.

Options:

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

 

Both (A) and (R) are true but(R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).

 

(A) is true but (R) is false.

 

Both (A) and (R) are false.

Correct Answer:

Both (A) and (R) are true but(R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).

 

Explanation:

Ductility of copper is not the correct explanation of it having low resistivity and high conductivity.
