What property of materials describes the ease in which they can be molded into thin sheets?

• Correct Answer: malleability
• rigidity
• plasticity
• permeability

Explanation: A physical property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance. Silver is a shiny metal that conducts electricity very well. It can be molded into thin sheets, a property called malleability. Salt is dull and brittle and conducts electricity when it has been dissolved into water, which it does quite easily. Physical properties of matter include color, hardness, malleability, solubility, electrical conductivity, density, melting points , and boiling points .
