Question:

_____________ is the property of metals due to which thin wires can be made by stretching them.

Options:

malleability

conductivity

purification

ductility

Correct Answer:

ductility

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 4. Ductility.

The property of metals due to which thin wires can be made by stretching them is ductility.

Ductility is the ability of a material, typically a metal, to deform under tensile stress (stretching) without breaking or fracturing. This property allows metals to be drawn into thin wires or elongated into various shapes without losing their integrity.
