Answer 2

Answer:

Correct answer: (D) Produces a ringing sound when beaten.

Explanation:

• A substance is said to be sonorous if it is able to produce sound.
• Metals are generally sonorous in nature.
• Metals produce a ringing sound when it is beaten.
• The electron cloud of metals is highly delocalized due to low electronegativity. Therefore, when struck the electron cloud easily moves and very less energy is dissipated. This allows room for the incoming kinetic energy to be propagated as a sound wave.
• This property of the sonority of metals is useful while making musical instruments, bells, and chimes.
