Define malleability in brief
Short answer
Malleability is the ability to be hammered or rolled into thin sheets without cracking. It depends on plasticity under compression; gold, silver, lead, copper and aluminium are highly malleable, and heating usually increases it.
Define malleability as a property of materials.
