Question

Why are coils of toaster and electric irons made of alloy rather than a pure metal

Answer 1

Answer:

It is because alloy has high resistivity than the pure metal and it does not melt easily at a high temperature.

Answer 2

$\huge\bf{Answer}$

The melting point of an alloy is much higher than a pure metal because of its high resistivity. At high temperatures, alloys do not melt readily. Therefore, alloys are used in heating appliances such as electric toasters and electric irons
