Question

Polyvinyl chloride has a property that makes it suitable for coating electric wires at home. Choose the property from the following?

  1. It is a fine conductor of heat.
  2. It is a fine conductor of electricity.
  3. It conducts electricity poorly.
  4. It is cheap in cost.

hintHint:

insulators.

The correct answer is: It conducts electricity poorly.


    It conducts electricity poorly that's why to prevent short circuit and electricshock we use pvc to coat the wire.
