As per my knowledge, copper is more malleable than lead.

If you think about malleability it is the property by which a metal turns in to thin sheet by compressive strength.

Take a piece of copper and lead. Blow a hammer on both. The result is lead will be broken into pieces while copper expand. So it is clear, copper is more malleable.

Copper is the right answer.

According to my knowledge, maximum malleable material lead.

Lead is actually quite malleable and can be deformed easily under compressive stress. However, copper is more malleable than lead due to its atomic structure, which allows for more extensive deformation without breaking.

Copper's crystal lattice structure and bonding allow it to be shaped into very thin sheets and wires more readily than lead.

Yes, GOLD has the maximum malleability.
