Potassium sulphate → Ionic solid
Tin → Metallic solid
Benzene → Molecular (non-polar) solid
Urea → Polar molecular solid
Ammonia → Polar molecular solid
Water → Hydrogen bonded molecular solid
Zinc sulphide → Ionic solid
Graphite → Covalent or network solid
Rubidium → Metallic solid
Argon → Non-polar molecular solid
Silicon carbide → Covalent or network solid
