Which statement best describes copper?
A. It has a low resistance and prevents charges from moving freely.
B It has a high resistance and allows charges to move freely.
C. It has a high resistance and prevents charges from moving freely.
D. It has a low resistance and allows charges to move freely

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. It has a low resistance and allows charges to move freely.

Explanation:

The high conductivity of copper allow charges to move freely without the need of too much force. The conductivity decreases with increase in resistance. Low resistance also means less heating of the conductors. This property of copper makes it ideal for use in the manufacture of electric cables and conductors for various gadgets.

Answer: It has a low resistivity and allows charges to move freely.
