Question

Explain the meaning of malliablity and ductility. give one emple pf each.

Answer 1

Ductility, by definition, is a material that can be stretched thin when tensile stress is applied. It is the way to describe a physical property of any material. Although very similar, be careful not to confuse ductility with malleability.eg. aluminum copper ... Malleability is a material that can bend or change shape using compressive force, rather than tensile stress. Think of compressive force as the act of squeezing or pushing down on a material to change its shape. Some metals can be both ductile and malleable, or ductile (or malleable) only.eg. gold silver iron

Answer 2

malliability means which can be hammered into sheets.And ductility means which can be drawn into wires.Metals are malleable and ductile but non-metals are not malleable and ductile. Example- gold /silver aluminium.
