Answer 2

Out of the given options, the one which is not a characteristic of plastic is- c) plastics are non inflammable.

Characteristics of plastics are-

• Plastics are substances that cannot conduct heat through them and hence, they are called insulators.
• As plastics are bad conductors of heat, still they are combustible as when brought near the flame, they burn and release smoke and gases. Hence, they are inflammable substances.
• They are generally non-reactive in nature as they do not react with water, air and are insoluble in water. Hence, they are resistant to attack by surrounding substances and microorganisms.
• Besides this, plastics are light weighted and durable and hence, they have many uses.
