Question

Arrange the following cone number in order (low temperature to high temperature) A. 4
B. 015
C. 019
D. 11
E. 02

• A. B, C, E, A, D
• B. C, B, E, A, D
• C. D, A, E, B, C
• D. E, B, C, A, D

Hint:

Logic Tip: In cone numbering, 019 is lower than 015, and temperatures increase toward positive cone numbers.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept:
Pyrometric cones are used in ceramics to measure heat-work inside kilns. Lower cone numbers with leading zeroes indicate lower firing temperatures.
•

Step 1:
Cone 019 represents the lowest firing temperature among the given options.
•

Step 2:
Cone 015 fires at a slightly higher temperature than 019.
•

Step 3:
Cone 02 belongs to medium-low firing range.
•

Step 4:
Cone 4 is a mid-range firing temperature.
•

Step 5:
Cone 11 represents the highest firing temperature in this sequence. \[ \boxed{\text{(2) C, B, E, A, D}} \]
