Answer:

D. Malleability

Explanation:

Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.
