Ground oil chemistry
Industry
Inflammability
Insulation

@Ruku.

Inflammability - the quality of being easily ignited and burning rapidly. Flammability. Burnability, combustibility, combustibleness - the quality of being capable of igniting and burning.

Although, at first I support the answer to be insulation, if we go on to justify the given answer, we can observe that, as conduction is somewhat a positive quality of metal, so in the same way, inflammability is somewhat a positive quality of plastic!

Inflammation = a localized physical condition in which part of the body becomes reddened, swollen, hot, and often painful, especially as a reaction to injury or infection.

In this question, we are not comparing flammability or inflammability. So, I think insulation is the correct answer.

As metal is related to conduction similarly plastic is related to insulation. And plastic is flammable.

Option D is correct as insulation is an intrinsic property of plastic like conduction for metals.

Insulator is the right answer because plastic is the insulator of electricity.

Insulator should be the right answer. Then how the answer is option C?

Metal conducts, plastic insulate. This is the best comparison.

Maya said:   1 decade ago
Plastics are insulators as we are comparing with conductors.
