Which of the following materials exhibits piezoelectric behavior, allowing it to generate a voltage when mechanical stress is applied?

  • A.Polyvinyl chloride
  • B.Quartz crystal
  • C.Stainless steel
  • D.Gray cast iron

Answer: B

Quartz crystal exhibits the piezoelectric effect, and generates a voltage when mechanical stress is applied. It is used in lighters, sensors and crystal oscillators. Polyvinyl chloride is an ordinary plastic, stainless steel is a metal alloy and gray cast iron is a casting alloy, and none of them is a piezoelectric material.
