Answer:
Molecular solids and covalent network solids are two types of solid compounds. The key difference between molecular solid and covalent network solid is that <em>molecular solid forms due to the action of Van der Waal forces </em>where as <em>covalent network solid forms due to the action of covalent chemical bonds.</em>

<u>Answer:</u> The original element is
<u>Explanation:</u>
Alpha decay is defined as the process in which alpha particle is emitted. In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into a lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released carries a charge of +2 units.
The released alpha particle is also known as helium nucleus.
For the given alpha decay process of an isotope:
<u>To calculate A:</u>
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
A = 208 + 4
A = 212
<u>To calculate Z:</u>
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
Z = 82 + 2
Z = 84
The isotopic symbol of unknown element is
Hence, the original element is
