Choose the correct alternative.

1. Alloys of metals usually have less resistivity than that of their constituent metals.
2. Alloys usually have much higher temperature coefficients of resistance than pure metals.
3. The resistivity of the alloy manganin is nearly independent with an increase of temperature.
4. The resistivity of a typical insulator (e.g., amber) is less than that of a metal by a factor of the order of  10 22 / 10 23 .
