Malleability and ductility of metals can be accounted due to

Malleability and ductility of metals can be accounted for due to What?

Answer :

  • Presence of elastic force
Both the properties are deformation due to the elastic forces while malleability is subjected to compressive force while ductility is subjected to a tensile force. 

Malleability and ductility have different properties have but both are account for the same characteristics.
