Answer:
Metallic solids : Metallic solids are conductors of electricity in solid state as well as in molten state as the metal atoms are held together through the metallic bond where the electrons are freely moving.
Ionic solids: Ionic solids are insulators in solid state but conductors in molten state and in aqueous solutions because in crystal form the electrons are trapped in crystal structure so the the mobilization of electrons do not take place.

Answer:
Ionic Solids
These solids are composed of oppositely charged ions arranged in alternative space with uneven atomic size and with a strong electrostatic force existing in between the ions which makes them electrically inert in their solid state.
Metallic solids
Metallic solids are composed of metal cations held together by a delocalized "sea" of valence electrons. ... Metallic solids also tend to be malleable and ductile due to the ability of the metal nuclei to move past each other without disrupting the bonding.
