RIGID!
Harb
The property of nonmetals that is the opposite of being malleable and ductile is brittleness. Unlike metals, which can be easily shaped and stretched without breaking, nonmetals tend to shatter or break when subjected to stress. This characteristic makes them rigid and less flexible compared to malleable and ductile materials.
Non metals are brittle. They are neither malleable nor ductile.

Gold is extremely malleable.

The opposite would be flexible. For an object, it could be ductile, bendable, elastic, or malleable. For a person, it could be amenable, accomodating, or receptive.

I think you may mean non-malleable. A malleable material is able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking, like gold, copper, aluminum. Non-malleable is the opposite- if you hammer it, it will crack or shatter- like glass, iron pyrite, cast iron.
malleable
Yes, carbon is malleable. It can be easily shaped or deformed under pressure without breaking. Carbon is commonly found in its malleable forms, such as graphite or diamond, which have different properties due to their unique molecular structures.
Gold is extremely malleable.
no it is not malleable
