What is the term given to the metals that produce ringing sound?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is option 3. Sonorous.
The property of a substance to produce a ringing sound when struck is known as sonority. Most metals produce sound. They are therefore utilized in several devices (eg. cymbals and bells). The majority of non-metals lack sonority, or the ability to make a ringing sound when struck.
