Question

Define a) Malleability b) Ductility​

Answer 1

Answer:

A malleable material is one in which a thin sheet can be easily formed by hammering or rolling. ... In contrast, ductility is the ability of a solid material to deform under tensile stress. Practically, a ductile material is a material that can easily be stretched into a wire when pulled as shown in the figure below.

Answer 2

Explanation:

a) Malleability is the quality of something that can be shaped into something else without breaking, like the malleability of clay. Malleability — also called plasticity — has to do with whether something can be molded.

b) Ductility is a mechanical property commonly described as a material's amenability to drawing. In materials science, ductility is defined by the degree to which a material can sustain plastic deformation under tensile stress before failure.
