Answer:
Because alloys like nichrome have a higher resistivity than pure metals, they will easily heat up when a tiny amount of current is sent through them.
Explanation:
- As a result, an alloy such as Nichrome, rather than pure metals, is used in electric equipment that produces heat, such as iron, electric heaters, boilers, toaster, and so on.
- Nichrome has a higher resistivity than pure metal.
- Nichrome has a higher melting point than pure metal.
- When heated in air, nichrome does not oxidise, whereas metal does.
