Q. Assertion (A) : Silver is a ductile material.
Reason (R) : For a ductile, material yield point and breaking point are separated by larger distance than for brittle materials on the stress-strain curve:

Mechanical Properties of Solids

Solution:

Ductility is the property of metals to get drawn into thin wires and such metals have considerable distanc between the points representing elastic limit and breaking point . Below the curves for ductile and brittle metals has been compared
