Magoosh Official Explanation
Split #1: The subject is simply “every elemental metal,” singular. The word “including” begins an additive phrase that is not part of the subject. The subject is singular, so the verb must be singular. Choices (A) and (C) are incorrect.
Split #2: the words “able” and “ability” idiomatically take the infinitive. The structures “able to” or “ability to” are correct, and “able for” and “ability for” are always 100% incorrect. Choices (B) and (E) are incorrect.
Choice (D) is the only possible answer.
