Answer:

Ductility has to do with tensile stress, whereas malleability deals with compressive stress. Materials such as lead are very malleable and can be hammered into shape with little chance of fracturing, but they are not ductile and will easily fracture if pulled from two opposite directions.

Answer:

Ductility has to do with tensile stress, whereas malleability deals with compressive stress. Materials such as lead are very malleable and can be hammered into shape with little chance of fracturing, but they are not ductile and will easily fracture if pulled from two opposite directions.

Explanation:

Malleability is the state of being malleable, or capable of being shaped, as by hammering or pressing: the extreme malleability of gold.

Ductility is the ability of a material to be drawn or plastically deformed without fracture. It is therefore an indication of how 'soft' or malleable the material is. The ductility of steels varies depending on the types and levels of alloying elements present.
