Why can metals bend?
Metals can bend because of their unique atomic structure, which allows layers of atoms to slide past each other when a force is applied. This phenomenon is called plastic deformation, and it enables metals to change shape without breaking. Additionally, the presence of "defects" such as dislocations in the metal's crystal lattice also contributes to its ability to bend.
What materials can bend?
Materials such as metals, plastics, and wood can bend under applied force. The ability of a material to bend depends on its flexibility, elasticity, and strength. Materials like rubber and silicone are also known for their bendability.
What metals don't bend?
Materials which are rich in carbon content are brittle in nature so they don't bent
A bimetallic strip will bend when heated because?
a bimetallic strip consists of two different metals with different thermal expansion coefficients. When heated, these metals expand at different rates, causing the strip to bend due to the resulting difference in length between the two metals.
Why can metals bend without breaking?
Metals can bend without breaking due to their unique crystalline structure and the way that metallic bonds hold the atoms together. When a force is applied, the layers of atoms are able to slide past each other in a process called plastic deformation, allowing the metal to change shape without fracturing.
Why non metals are non malleable?
Malleable means how easy or hard it is to contort an item. Metals are easy to because they can be heated up and shaped. It is hard (i dont even think possible) to bend or contort something like oxygen
Can metals bend?
Yes, many metals can bend, even without being heated (eg. Copper). These are called malleable metals.
What are the general properties of metal?
well it depends because if it was iron it wouldn't bend that easily and it wouldn't be light weight but if it was something like aluminum it would be easy to bend and it would be light weight also most metals are water proof and all metals conduct heat.
What element is soft metals?
lead symbol Pb

Not stiff and easy to bend?
A word used to describe something as 'not stiff' and 'easy to bend' is the adjective pliable.Synonyms for the adjective 'pliable' are:flexiblepliantsupplemalleable
What element can be bent or stretched and is usually shiny?
All metals except Na,Hg and K since they are amorphous. Other metals are shiny because they reflect light which falls on them. Answer: If you are looking for a single answer and one that is relatively easy to bend and stretch in relation to other metals then you are looking for Atomic #79, Au, Gold.
pliable is something that can bend easy?
pliable is easy to blend something
