The correct option is B False

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock which mainly composed of carbon.
Carbon is non-metal.
So, Carbon is brittle in nature and it is non-malleable and non-ductile in nature.
It would crumble if it is tried to draw into a wire.
Hence, the given statement is false.
