Question

“Is malleable and ductile”. This best describes:

विकल्प

• a metal

• a compound

• a non-metal

• a solution

Answer 1

A metal

Explanation:

Malleability is the physical property that allows a material to be hammered or rolled into thin sheets without breaking. Ductility is the property that allows a material to be drawn or stretched out into long, thin wires. These properties are classic physical characteristics of metals, enabled by metallic bonding, which allows atoms to slide past one another under pressure without fracturing.
