why glass is more elastic than rubber?

Answer Posted / abhishek gupta

Elasticity is not the ability to deform a material. It is
the ability to resist the the deforming force.

"The property by which a body returns to its orginal shape
after the removal of external load is called elasticity."
-Strength of Materials by B.C.Punmia, Ashok Jain, Arun Jain

The Young's modulus of elasticity (E) is a measure of this
elasticity of a material.
Hence, E (glass) > E (rubber)
