Question:

Which of the following can be beaten into thin sheets?

Sulphur

Oxygen

Solution:

The correct option is Zinc. Zinc is the only metal which is malleable enough to make thin sheets. Zinc offers high malleability while other elements are non-metals which are non-malleable and so cannot be beaten into sheets. Hence, the correct option is Zinc.
