    (A) Br₂ (s) : molecular solids

    (B) AgCl (s) : ionic solids

    (C) S (s) : atomic solids

    (D) CH₄ (s) : molecular solids

    Explanation:

    Molecular solids : It is defined as the solids in which they are held together by covalent forces, dipole interactions as attractive forces etc.

    Ionic solids : It is defined as the solids in which the atoms composed with oppositely charged ions.

    Atomic solids : It is defined as the solids in which the molecules are held together by covalent forces and also includes pure substance.

    (A) Br₂ (s)

    It is molecular solids because they are held together by covalent forces.

    (B) AgCl (s)

    It is ionic solids because in this atoms composed with oppositely charged ions.

    (C) S (s)

    It is atomic solids because it is a pure substance.

    (D) CH₄ (s)

    It is molecular solids because they are held together by covalent forces.
