What is the Latin translation for the word 'metal'?

The Latin equivalent of the English word 'metal' was the following: metallum. But the word wasn't a common choice by writers in ancient, classical Latin. For they instead tended to refer to a metal by its actual name, such as 'aurum' for 'gold' and 'ferrum' for 'iron'.

What is the meaning of gold in Latin?

The word 'later' is Latin for 'bar [of metal]', and 'aureus' the masculine form of the adjective 'gold' or 'golden'. Latin is a language that uses case endings, to show the relationship to the verb in the sentence. The case isn't specified in this example.Therefore, the Latin equivalent of the phrase 'gold bars' is given for all five cases, in the plural form. The phrase 'gold bars', as subject in the nominative case, is lateres aurei. The genitive, or possessive, form as 'of the gold bars' is laterum aureorum. The dative, or indirect object, form as 'to the gold bars' is lateribus aureis. The accusative, or direct object, form as 'the gold bars' is lateres aureos. And the ablative form as 'by, from, in , or with the gold bars' is lateribus aureis after the appropriate preposition.Addition info: The above answer tells how to translate it using a noun and an adjective, meaning that there is a bar of metal that is golden. To translate it as "a bar of metal that is made of gold", you will need to use the noun "bar" along with the noun "gold" in the genative case, to show the genitive of material. To do this, start with the word "later" in whatever case you need it to be in the sentence. After it put the later noun for gold, "aurus" in the genitive case, "auri". So to say "bar of gold" you would say "later auri".Note: The genitive case can always be translated as "of _____".To show possession, " Equus Davi" The horse of David.To show material, "Later Auri", The bar of gold.To show origin, "Vir Oppidi" The man of the town.To show a part of something, "Fenestra casae" The window of the house.

What physical property is described when aluminum can be hammered into thin sheets?

Yes. Aluminium is a metal and a very malleable (can be hammered into sheets) metal as well. To prove this, 'tin' foil used to wrap food for cooking (like 'Bacofoil') is actually made from aluminum and not tin. The most malleable metal is gold - it can be hammered into thin 'gold leaf' sheets that can be so thin that they are just a few atoms thick. Aluminium is not as malleable as this, but it can easily be made into foil.
