Explanation Pure copper or unalloyed copper has a unique property that has high electrical and thermal conductivity & it has good corrosion resistance. The pure copper is made from copper ores. Copper ores are obtained from sulfides having zinc, lead, and other sulfur. Commercially used pure coppers are represented by the designations C10100 to C13000...
