Option 3 : It is highly malleable. 

Concept:

  • Metals are the elements that conduct electricity and heat and are malleable and ductile.
  • The property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin sheets is called malleable.

Explanation:

  • Aluminum metal is so highly malleable metal.
  • Aluminum metals can be beaten with a hammer to form very thin sheets called foils.
  • So, aluminum foils are used for packing or wrapping food items like chocolates, biscuits, medicines, cigarettes, etc.

Therefore, the correct answer is that it is highly malleable. 

  • Silver, gold, and copper are also highly malleable.
    • Copper sheets are used to make utensils and other containers.
    • Iron is also quite malleable and iron sheets are used to make boxes, buckets, drums, etc. 
  • The property which allows the metals to be drawn into the thin wires is called ductility.
