Suppose element x is a poor conductor of electricity and breaks when hit with a hammer and element z is a good conductor of electricity in what part of the periodical table does each belong?

Well, let me think. Element X does not conduct electricity well, so it must be more stable, with a strong grip on it's outer shells. If I remember correctly, that would put it closer to the right side. It breaks when hit with a hammer meaning that it's not a gas, for one, and also that it does not form strong bonds with itself. In my mind that places it near the bottom right of the periodic table, right next to the noble gasses. My guess goes to it being a metalloid, probably Tellurium.
As far a Z goes, it could be a wide range of things, if we only know that it is a good conductor. I'm going to guess it's in the range of "transition elements"
