Answer:

KBr

Explanation:

A metal has a very high melting point. Aluminum is a metal.

Ionic solids do not conduct electricity in the solid state. However, when the solids are melted, they conduct electricity.

KBr is an ionic substance, it can only conduct electricity in molten form because the ions are locked up in the solid.

How many sublevels inn the second energy level?
GREYUIT [131]

There are two subshells that are s and p, which are present in the second energy level.

The energy level can be defined as the fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons may be found. Each energy level is divided into some Subshells. These subshells are known as s-subshell, p-subshell, d-subshell, and f-subshell. This subshell contains some orbitals, these orbitals are the place where there is the maximum probability of getting the electrons. In one orbital, a maximum of two electrons can be present.

Hence, there are two subshells in the second energy level.
