My guess is that copper is cheaper and more abundant.
Sterling silver wire is used for a variety of craft purposes. Most notably it is used in jewelry making. Sterling silver wire is becoming more popular for making intricate webbed earrings and wrapping gems as focal points in necklaces.
No, copper is commonly used to make wire.
Any conductor can be used but the relative high conductivity of most metals make them prime candidates.
(A. Copper) The right answer is C. Silver
All kinds of other things use copper as well. But it's used for wire because of its high conductivity, the highest of all metals except silver.
Almost all metals are ductile. Most of them are commonly used in our life. Copper and aluminum are commonly used for making wires but the most ductile metal is gold. A wire of about 2km can be drawn from a piece of 10g of gold.
Copper and silver are good conductors as both are metals.
No, silver was never used in BX cable.
Tantalum is used for wire. The wire is used for helping other metals evaporate.It's actually a great use.
Most of the d-block elements are ductile and malleable as , Iron , Copper , Silver , Gold.
zinc, copper, silver, aluminum, alloys or metals that have low melting point
If the volume and length of the wire are constant, then silver. If the weight and length of the wire are constant, then sodium is the best conductor.
