Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To classify the given solids, we will analyze each one based on their bonding and structure. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Analyze Tetra phosphorus decoxide `(P₄O₁₀)` - **Type**: Molecular Solid - **Reason**: It consists of discrete molecules held together by van der Waals forces. ### Step 2: Analyze Graphite - **Type**: Network (Covalent) Solid ...
