Amorphous and Crystalline Solids starts at 9 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Amorphous and Crystalline Solids.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 11
A student heats two solids: one melts sharply at 801°C, the other softens over a range of 500–700°C. Identify which is likely crystalline and which is amorphous.
Describe how the melting behavior of amorphous solids differs from that of crystalline solids.
Describe the arrangement of particles in amorphous solids.
Explain the difference between isotropy and anisotropy with respect to solids.
Explain why amorphous solids are sometimes called supercooled liquids.
Explain why crystalline solids are anisotropic.
Explain why glass is considered an amorphous solid.
Name two examples each of crystalline and amorphous solids.
What is meant by the term 'long-range order' in the context of solids?
Which type of solid has a sharp and definite melting point?
