Answer:
Most metals can be drawn into a wire, while nonmetals would break apart.
Explanation:
Most of the metals can be drawn into wire without breaking because their tensile strength is high. This property of metals is known as ductility.
Non metals on the other hand do not have this ability because they are brittle and tend to break apart because their tensile strength is very low.
The examples of metals which are generally used for making wires are aluminium, iron, copper etc. and rarely gold and silver are used for making wires for expensive equipments like computers.
