Best Answer

To be malleable (instead of malliable) means that the object can be flattened or molded relatively easily. Play-Doh would be a very malleable object, and aluminum is relatively malleable compared to chalk, which is almost not malleable at all (everything is at least slightly malleable, and there is no such thing as 100% malleable.)

What are the advantages of lead?

Low cost, chemically unreactive (won't corrode etc), high density (heavy), low melting point, electrical conductor, nonmagnetic, formable (malliable, ductile etc), low hardness (for a metal), its a metal, poisonous... Advantages depend on what you want to use it for... would make a great fishing weight but an awful frying pan...


What elements are used for space exploration?

Mainly extremly strong, but light, aluminium. This is held together with iron bolts to sucure. Aluminium is light and to an extent malliable (flexible) so it can be used to make cylinders like space shuttels. I work for NASA Design Plan Department (NDPD) and so have much knowledge on this type of question :)

Can dwarf rabbits eat grass?

Yes, any kind of pet rabbit can eat hay. Hay is the most important part of a pet rabbit's diet! See the related question below for more info about a healthy rabbit diet. Timothy hay (a kind of grass hay) is best as a staple for adults, whereas alfalfa hay is good for young and pregnant rabbits. Adult rabbits can eat other varieties of grass hay, too (like brome, orchard grass, meadow grass), but legume hays (like alfalfa) aren't good for them.


What are the three properties of iron?

Iron is a lustrous, ductile, malleable, silver-gray metal. It is known to exist in four distinct crystalline forms. Iron rusts in dump air, but not in dry air. It dissolves readily in dilute acids. Iron is chemically active and forms two major series of chemical compounds, the bivalent iron (II), or ferrous, compounds and the trivalent iron (III), or ferric, compounds.


Can you machine embroidery on a knitted item?

You can try - In terms of whether the machine will let you or react well to it is another matter. Because you are using knitted fabric, which is stretchy as opposed to traditional woven fabric which is not, when the needle goes through the fabric, instead of puncturing it, the fabric might pull down into the bottom bed, in which case the stitches might not be as perfect as if you were using a woven fabric. If you do manage to embroider onto it, because the fabric is stretchy (whereas the stitches wont be) the texture of the knittred fabric where it has been embroidered might not look or feel that neat. If you want to embroider onto knit I suggest you research how to hand embroider onto knit. This isn't hand embroidery in the normal sence, it involves your stitches following the form of the knitted stitches (almost like over knitting). This way the fabric remains malliable.
