A student is given four solid samples labeled W, X, Y, and Z. All have a metallic luster. She is told that the solids could be gold, lead sulfide, mica (which is quartz, or SiO2), and iodine. The results of her investigations are: W is a good electrical conductor; X, Y, and Z are poor electrical conductors. When the solids are hit with a hammer, W flattens out, X shatters into many pieces, Y is smashed into a powder, and Z is not affected. When the solids are heated with a Bunsen burner, Y melts with some sublimation, but X, W, and Z do not melt. In treatment with 6 M HNO3, X dissolves; there is no effect on W, Y, or Z. On the basis of these test results, identify the solids.
