Explanation:

Solids can be classified on the basis of the bonds that hold the atoms or molecules together. This approach categorizes solids as either molecular, covalent, ionic, or metallic. Iodine (I2), sugar (C12H22O11), and polyethylene are examples of compounds that are molecular solids at room temperature.

Solids are classified on the basis of type of bonding that are responsible for holding the molecules and atoms together inside the solids.

Explanation:

  • Depending upon the bonding, solids are classified into four types that include: Molecular, ionic, covalent, and metallic solids.
  • Molecular solids: Molecular solids are specified by comparatively much weaker van der waal intermolecular forces between the molecules and even strong intramolecular forces between the atoms. Due to such  weak intermolecular bonds, the molecular solids are frequently called soft substances. The best example of such solids are solid carbon dioxide, and dry ice.
  • Ionic solids: Ionic solids are composed of ions that are oppositely charged and are held together by strong electrostatic force between the ions. One of the perfect example of ionic solids is salt (NaCl).
  • Covalent solids: Covalent solids are composed of chains and networks of molecules and atoms that are held together by endless number of covalent bonds. Perfect example of covalent solids include diamond.
  • Metallic solids: Metallic solids are formed by metallic cations that are held together by metallic bonding with the delocalized valence electron. Examples include magnesium, iron etc.

Final Answer: Solids are classified on the basis of type of bonding into metallic, covalent, ionic, and molecular solids.
