If a metal can be drawn into wires relatively easily it is called

  • A.Malleable
  • B.Ductile
  • C.Extractive
  • D.Tactile

Answer: B

A metal that can be drawn out into wire is ductile. Gold is the most ductile of all - a single gram can be drawn into a wire two kilometres long.

A metal that can be hammered into thin sheets is malleable instead. Most metals are both, because their layers of atoms can slide over one another without the bonding breaking.
