Explanation

Gold is the most malleable metal, meaning it can be hammered into extremely thin sheets without breaking. A single gram of gold can be beaten into a sheet covering several square meters. Silver and aluminum are also malleable but not to the same extent as gold, while sodium is too reactive.
