Solution

The correct option is C sulphur

Ductility is the property by which a substance can be converted into thin wires by beating with a hammer. ​

Most of the metals are ductile while non-metals are brittle in nature.​

  • Silver, copper and aluminium are metals.​

  • Sulphur is non-metal, and it cannot be drawn into wires.​
