To solve the question, we need to identify a non-metal X that exists in two different forms, Y and Z, where Y is the hardest natural substance and Z is a good conductor of electricity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Non-Metal X**: - We need to think about non-metals that can exist in different forms (allotropes). The most well-known non-metal that fits this description is carbon. 2. **Determine Form Y**: ...

Four solids W,X , Y and Z are given . All have a metallic lustre. The solids could be gold, lead sulphide , mica (which is quartz or SiO_2 ) and iodine . The results of the investigation are : (a)W is a good electrical conductor . X,Y and Z are poor electrical conductors (b)When the solids are hit with a hammer, W flattens out , X shaltters into many pieces, Y is smashed into a powder and Z is not affected . (c )When the solids are heated with a Bunsen burner, Y melts with some sublimation, but X, W and Z do not melt. (d)In treatment with 7M HNO_3 , X dissolves and there is no effect on W,Y or Z On the basis of these test results, identify the solids
