Assertion (A): A body cannot be made both easy to fire and highly resistant to deformation at temperature.
Reason (R): The flux that lowers the firing temperature is the same thing that softens the body.

  • A.A is true but R is false
  • B.A is false but R is true
  • C.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • D.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the conflict. Fluxes work by forming a liquid phase at temperature, and it is that liquid which fills the pores and vitrifies the body - and equally that liquid which lets it sag. Lowering the firing temperature therefore lowers the deformation temperature with it, and the two goals cannot be pursued independently.
