What happen while bending metal spoon?

When bending a metal spoon, the spoon undergoes plastic deformation, meaning the metal's structure is altered without breaking. As force is applied, the metal atoms shift, allowing the spoon to take on a new shape. If too much force is applied, however, the spoon may break or snap due to exceeding the material's yield strength. Additionally, the bending process can create stress points that may weaken the spoon over time.
