A materials science lab is analyzing three pure chemical samples labeled P, Q, and R. The physical properties of these samples were recorded in the table below:

SubstanceMelting point (∘C^\circ\text{C}∘C)Boiling point (∘C^\circ\text{C}∘C)Electrical conductivity (Solid)Electrical conductivity (Liquid)
P8011413Does not conductConducts electricity
Q-182-161Does not conductDoes not conduct
R10852562Conducts electricityConducts electricity

Identify the type of chemical bonding present in each of the substances P, Q, and R. For each substance, explain how the provided experimental data supports your conclusion.
