Answer:
then why'd you ask a question
Explanation:
Malleability is the property due to which substances tend to hammered into thin sheets when pressure is applied. Malleability is observed in metal as the metal atoms are bound by metallic bonds. The layers of metal atoms can roll over each other without breaking the metal bond when pressure is applied. In the periodic table malleability decreases as the metallic nature decreases. Among the given metals Al is the most metallic element, followed by Zinc an Carbon is a non metal. Therefore, the order of increasing malleability will be C, Zn, Al
Always younger than the rock it intrudes

Explanation:
The postulates of the kinetic theory of matter are;
- Every substance is made up of tiny particles called molecules. Brownian motion and diffusion illustrates this fact.
- The molecules that compose matter are in constant random motion.
- There exists an attractive force between the molecules in matter. The attractive forces between gases are negligible. Solids have a definite shape and volume due to a high magnitude of intermolecular forces. Liquids have a volume but no definite shape due to weaker intermolecular forces. Gases have the weakest intermolecular forces hence the do not have both a shape and volume. They take on the volume of the container into which they are put. This illustrates this fact.
- The actual volume occupied by gas molecules is negligible relative to the volume of the container. The fact that gases are easily compressible illustrates this fact.
- Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.
