Which is a property of most nonmetallic solids?
(1) high thermal conductivity(2) high electrical conductivity(3) brittleness(4) malleability

Sagot :

Most nonmetallic solids have the property of brittleness.

Answer : The correct option is, (3) brittleness

Explanation :

The properties of nonmetallic solids are :

  • Nonmetallic solids are brittle in nature.
  • They are non-malleable and ductile.
  • Nonmetallic has low thermal conductivity. That means they are poor conductor of electricity.
  • Nonmetallic has low electrical conductivity. That means they are poor conductor of heat.
  • They are non-lustrous.
  • The melting point and boiling point of non metals are lower than the metals.

Hence, the brittleness is a property of most nonmetallic solids
