it's ductility and it's conductivity

Explanation:

The ductility of metals (such as copper) is it's ability to be stretched into wires. A metal's conductivity (with regards to electrics) is it's ability to transfer electricity through it. Copper is typically used in home wiring because of it's relative availableness and it's good ductility and conductivity.
