Question

What do you mean by malleability and ductility

Answer 1

Malleability:-

Malleability is the ability of a material to deform under stess (compressive stress).

Ductility:-

Ductility of a material is the ability to stretch under stress (tensile stress).

Answer 2

• Malleability - A metal that can be beaten into thin sheets on hammering is called malleable .

• Ductility - A metal which can be drawn
