An element is sonorous and highly ductile. Under which category would you classify this element? What other characteristics do you expect the element to possess?
Solution:
Sonorous: It means, substance makes ringing sound when we strike it.
Ductile: We can create wire, as it can be deformed without losing strength.
These two properties indicate that the element must be metal.
The metal is expected to be lustrous, malleable and good conductor of heat and electricity
