physical property
bends easily
insulator
conducts heat
brittle
high luster
options:
bends easily
insulator
conducts heat
brittle
high luster
clear all

Explanation:

Nitrogen is a non - metal gas at room temperature. Non - metals are generally insulators (they do not conduct heat or electricity well) and are not malleable (do not bend easily), not ductile, not lustrous, and can be brittle in some solid non - metal forms, but as a gas, the relevant properties here: "insulator" (since it doesn't conduct heat/electricity) and "brittle" (if we consider solid nitrogen, but more importantly, among the options, non - metals like nitrogen are insulators and can be brittle. The properties like "bends easily" (malleable, a metal property), "conducts heat" (metal property), "high luster" (metal property) are not properties of nitrogen. So the two correct properties are "insulator" and "brittle".

Answer:

insulator, brittle
