Answer:

In the electric equipment producing heat, such as iron, electric heater, boiler, toaster etc., an alloy such as Nichrome is used, not pure metals because of the following reasons: (i) Resistivity of Nichrome is more compared to pure metal. ... (iii) Nichrome does not get oxidised when heated in air whereas metal does.
