  1. 1.

    A student investigates three solid elements, X, Y, and Z, to determine their classification on the periodic table. Element X is malleable, lustrous, and conducts electricity well at room temperature. Element Y is brittle, dull, and acts as an electrical insulator, while Element Z is shiny but brittle and exhibits moderate electrical conductivity that increases when heated. Based on these observations, which statement correctly classifies the elements?

    • A) Element X is a metalloid, Element Y is a nonmetal, and Element Z is a metal.
    • B) Element X is a metal, Element Y is a metalloid, and Element Z is a nonmetal.
    • C) Elements X and Z are both metals, whereas Element Y is a nonmetal.
    • D) Element X is a metal, Element Y is a nonmetal, and Element Z is a metalloid.
