Answer question on the basis of your understanding of the following paragraph and related studied concepts. You will find that some metals can be beaten into thin sheets. This property is called malleability. Gold and silver are the most malleable metals. The ability of metals to be drawn into thin wires is called ductility. Gold is the most ductile metal. You will be surprised to know that a wire of about 2 km length can be made from one gram of gold. It is because of their malleability and ductility that metals can be given different shapes according to our needs. You have got a piece of gold that weight 200 mg. What is the maximum length of wire approximately that you can obtain from it ?
