Solution

The correct options are
B Iron nail
D Pencil lead
Pencil lead and iron nail are metals. Metals allow electricity to pass through them. So they can make a bulb glow when they are used as a connector. Whereas a match stick and a piece of chalk are insulators. They do not pass electricity through them. Hence when used as a connector, they cannot make a bulb glow.
