Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Borosilicate glass (e.g., Pyrex) contains boron trioxide (B₂O₃) along with silica, giving it low coefficient of thermal expansion, thus resistant to cracking under temperature changes. Soda-lime glass is ordinary glass, used for bottles, windows. Lead crystal has high refractive index for decorative items. Quartz glass (pure SiO₂) has very high melting point but is expensive. Borosilicate is ideal for beakers, test tubes.
