Glass is a common non-metal material that shatters when struck due to its brittle nature. Glass is typically made by cooling molten silica-based materials quickly, which creates a structure that lacks long-range molecular order and makes it prone to breaking.
The fact that solid sulfur shatters when struck is a physical property. This is because the property is based on the physical state and structure of the sulfur, rather than any change in its chemical composition.
The mechanical properties of metal are usually referred to as malleability being it it bends easily like gold without breaking or shatters when struck.
'Hooks' usually appear in a script in the first 10 pages. A hook is an unexpected event that shatters something: shatters the status quo, shatters a character's dreams, shatters some physical element of the story. A hook is meant to rivet and engage an audience, so they become interested in 'what happens next'.

The frequency at which glass shatters under stress varies depending on factors such as the type of glass and the amount of force applied. Generally, glass shatters at frequencies that correspond to its natural resonant frequency when subjected to significant stress.
