1.

which of the following solids is not an electrical conductor ? (a) Mg(s) (b) TiO(s) ( c) `I_(2)(s)` (d) `H_(2)O(s)`A. (I) onlyB. (II) onlyC. (III) and (IV)D. (II),(III) and (IV)

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`I_(2(s))` is a non-polar molecular solid and is an insulator. `H_2O_((s))` is a hydrogen bonded molecular solid and is an insulator. Mg is metallic solid and is a conductor in solid as well as in molten state. TiO is an ionic solid and is an insulator in solid state but is a conductor in molten state and in aqueous solution .
