D. Malleability because he is most likely going to show how you can easily roll pizza dough, and that can show malleability, which means ability to be flexible, rolled, stretched, etc.

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Metals are the substances which have excess of electrons.

Some properties of metals are as follows.

  • Metals are lustrous.
  • They are malleable and ductile.
  • They have high melting and boiling point.
  • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.

When we say that metals are malleable then it means that metals can be drawn into thin sheets.

Therefore, when Luis decides to use a ball of pizza dough and a rolling pin then he is demonstrating the property of malleability.
