Solution

The correct option is C It can be drawn into wire.
The ability of a substance to be drawn into thin wires is called ductility. Metals have this property. Since aluminium is a metal it can be drawn into wires.

Also metals are malleable and good conductors of heat and electricity. So aluminium, being a metal, has all these properties.
