Correct answer: C. compound
- A. semi-conductor
- B. super-conducto
- C. compound
- D. insulator
Explanation
A compound is formed when atoms of two or more different elements combine chemically, so its molecules contain dissimilar atoms. A semiconductor, superconductor, or insulator is classified by electrical behaviour, not by this molecular definition.
