Which of the two materials (brittle vs. ductile) usually obtains the largest modulus of toughness and why?

The modulus of toughness is greater for ductile material.

Explanation:

Modulus of toughness is defined as the amount of strain energy that a material stores per unit volume. It is equal to the area under stress-strain curve of the material up to the point of fracture.

As we know that  the area under the stress-strain curve of a ductile material is much more than the area under the stress strain curve of a brittle material as brittle materials fail at a lesser load hence we conclude that the modulus of toughness is greater for ductile material than a brittle material.

In our experience we can also relate that for same volume a substance such as glass sheet (brittle) fails at lower load as compared to a sheet of steel (ductile) with identical dimensions.
