Question

Metals have a property by which they can to be drawn into wires. The name of the property is.

• A. sonority
• B. lustre
• C. ductility

Answer 1

The correct option is C ductility

Ductility is a physical property of metals which allows them to be drawn into thin wires.This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond. As a result, a 2-dimentional metal piece (sheet) can be easily transformed to a 1-dimensional thin long wire.
