5. One reason that copper pipes, rather than iron pipes, are used in household plumbing is that: a) Iron has a greater tendency to be oxidized than copper b) Iron will react with dissolved minerals such as calcium salts c) Copper is a better conductor of heat energy than iron d) Commercial drain cleaners containing sodium hydroxide will react with iron.
