Describe the physical properties of metals that help in their classification.
Brittleness and dull appearance
Malleability and ductility
Transparency and high reactivity
Low melting point and low density
Answer and Solution
Answer
B. Malleability and ductility
Solution:
The physical properties of metals that aid in their classification include malleability (ability to be hammered into thin sheets) and ductility (ability to be drawn into wires). These properties distinguish metals from non-metals.
