Question 10 • Physical Science

Each year, the science club puts on a science show for the students in the elementary school. Luis is planning demonstrations to show properties of metals. For one property, he decides to use a ball of pizza dough and a rolling pin. Which property of metals is Luis most likely going to demonstrate using these materials

Answer
A
luster
B
opacity
C
conductivity
D
malleability

Explanation

A rolling pin flattens and reshapes the pizza dough without breaking it. This models malleability, the ability of a material to be hammered or pressed into a different shape. Metals can be shaped in this way, so the correct choice is malleability.
