Question 11 • {HS} Intro to Art Sem. 2

Which of the following is not true of silver?

Answer
A
It has the highest electrical conductivity of all metals.
B
It is a precious metal used to make ornaments, jewelry, and utensils.
C
It is a copper alloy, usually mixed tin as the main additive.
D
It is very ductile and malleable, slightly harder than gold.

Explanation

Silver is an element, not a copper alloy. A copper alloy usually made with tin as its main additive is bronze, so choice C is not true of silver. Silver is also highly conductive and is commonly used in jewelry and ornaments.
