Solid A is very hard electrical insulator in solid as well as in molten state and melts at an extremely high temperature. What type of solid is it?

Solid A is a very hard electrical insulator in solid as well as in molten state and melts at extermely high temperature. What type of solid is it?

Solids have properties like rigidity a definite shape and a define volume. If intermolecular forces are greater than thermal energy, substances exist as solid. Solids can be classified into two types. Crystalline solids and amorphous solids, Crystalline solids have regular arrangement of particles, definite geometric shapes, sharp melting points and definite heat of fusion. They are anisotropic and undergo clean cleavage. On the other hand, amorphous solid have no regular arrangement of particles, irregular shapes, melt over a range of temperature, no definite heat of fusion. They are isotropic and undergo irregular cleavage. Solid X is very hard, electrical insulator in solid as well as molten state and melts at extremely high temperature. Name the type of solid is it?

What type of solid is naphthalene?

A solid substance 'A' is very hard and electrical insulator both in the solid state as well as in molten state. It has also very high melting point. Is the solid metal like silver or network solid like silicon carbide (SiC) ?

Ionic solids conduct electrical insulator in solid as well as in molten state but not in solid state. Explain

Solids with Schottky defects are electrical insulators.
