hey mate here is your answer:-

gold and silver are the most malleable substance because Malleability is the ability of a metal to be hammered into thin sheets. Gold and silver are highly malleable. When a piece of iron is hammered it takes the shape of a sheet. This property is not seen in non metals.

thank you

Answer:

Gold is the most malleable and ductile of all metals, silver the second. Gold can be pounded into sheets less than four millionths of an inch thick. An ounce of gold can be drawn into a wire more than 40 miles long. Malleable and ductile metals are soft and easy to work with.

Explanation:

Gold is called a heavy metal because of its high density, which comes from the fact that each of its atoms is individually very heavy. ... In contrast, gold atoms slide past each other relatively easily, which makes the metal soft and malleable.
