Assertion (A): A glaze is usually formulated to finish in slight compression rather than exactly matched to the body.
Reason (R): Glass is far stronger in compression than in tension, so a small compressive stress is safe.

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

Answer: B

Both are true and the reason gives the design principle: an exact match leaves no margin for variation, whereas a little compression is tolerated comfortably and even strengthens the ware. A glazed article is stronger than the same body unglazed.
