Question

Match the following: a) Blowing, b) Floating, c) Pressing, d) Drawing with i) Tubes, ii) Bottles, iii) Sheet glass, iv) Table ware.

• A. \(a\)-ii, \(b\)-iii, \(c\)-iv, \(d\)-i
• B. \(a\)-iii, \(b\)-ii, \(c\)-i, \(d\)-iv
• C. \(a\)-ii, \(b\)-iv, \(c\)-iii, \(d\)-i
• D. \(a\)-iv, \(b\)-ii, \(c\)-iii, \(d\)-i

Hint:

Blowing is used for bottles, floating for sheet glass, pressing for table ware, and drawing for tubes.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

We need to match glass forming processes with their products. First, consider blowing. Blowing is commonly used to make hollow glass articles such as bottles. So: \[ a)\ \text{Blowing} \rightarrow ii)\ \text{Bottles}. \] Now consider floating. In the float glass process, molten glass floats on molten tin. This process is used to produce flat glass sheets. So: \[ b)\ \text{Floating} \rightarrow iii)\ \text{Sheet glass}. \] Now consider pressing. Pressing is used for articles like plates, dishes, bowls, and table ware. So: \[ c)\ \text{Pressing} \rightarrow iv)\ \text{Table ware}. \] Now consider drawing. Drawing is used to produce continuous forms such as tubes and rods. So: \[ d)\ \text{Drawing} \rightarrow i)\ \text{Tubes}. \] Therefore, the correct matching is: \[ a\text{-}ii,\quad b\text{-}iii,\quad c\text{-}iv,\quad d\text{-}i. \]
