Chapter 4, Problem 4.48P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given metals needs to be arranged in increasing order of the ductility.

Concept Introduction:

The metals are rigid in nature. They are hard to compressed but there are some method by which the shape of metal can be changes. Ductility is the ability of a metal to be transformed into thin wires.

Also, it is the ability of a metal to hold the plastic deformation which is caused by the dislocations in the crystal sytsem of the metal. The movement of dislocation is easy in the closed placked planes only.
