AP Chemistry
3.2 Properties of Solids
A student investigates the physical properties of four unknown crystalline solids, \(W\), \(X\), \(Y\), and \(Z\). The results of the student's tests are summarized in the table below.
Based on the data in the table, which of the following statements correctly identifies one of the solids and provides the appropriate structural justification?
| Solid | Melting point (\(^\circ\text{C}\)) | Electrical conductivity (solid state) | Electrical conductivity (liquid state) |
|---|---|---|---|
| \(W\) | \(119\) | Nonconductor | Nonconductor |
| \(X\) | \(801\) | Nonconductor | Good conductor |
| \(Y\) | \(1085\) | Good conductor | Good conductor |
| \(Z\) | \(1710\) | Nonconductor | Nonconductor |
