Correct answer: B

Answer: Impure

Explanation:

Meaning: "Unalloyed" means not alloyed or mixed with other substances; it denotes purity. It can also be used figuratively to mean complete or unqualified (for example, unalloyed joy = pure, unqualified joy).

Why "Impure" is correct: "Impure" means mixed, adulterated, or not pure, which is the direct opposite of "unalloyed."

Example: There is no unalloyed benefit from higher inflation for anyone.
