The basis in crystals is that it is uniquely arranged in a given solid or liquid.
liquid crystals are long chain molecules that spontaneously line up into crystal like arrangements. normal liquids don't.
Heating a solid crystal of iodine will cause it to vaporize without turning into a liquid first. It is called sublimation.
solid to liquid
solid liquid
No, a snowflake is not a liquid. It is a solid crystal. And each crystal in unique and unlike any other snowflake.
Liquid crystal displays use crystals that are not solid. The optical transparency of the crystal is adjusted with an electrical signal. The crystal will change its orientation as the signal is varied. It is this fluid motion that classifies the crystal as a liquid.
The basis in crystals is that it is uniquely arranged in a given solid or liquid.
Iron as a liquid is a hot, yellow liquid. As a solid, it is has a crystal structure. As a gas, iron requires a lot of heat, which can be produced in a vacuum chamber.
In a liquid, the particles are free to move around; in a solid, they have a fixed position. In a solid, the particles may have a regular structure (i.e., a crystal), or the structure may be irregular.
Liquid water is not considered a mineral because it is not a solid. But solid water--ice, is considered a mineral because it is a solid with a crystal form.
Yes, but they will be very large molecules such as soaps - sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids. There is no simple answer as to why, it is a simple fact of nature that some compounds have a transitional structure between trully liquid and solid crystal, that is, a liquid crystal phase.
Physical science is involved here because the screen of televison which we see is actually the "Liquid Crystal" (We can say it a state of matter) which can be defined as: "Liquid crystal is state, semi solid and semi liquid!
liquid crystals are long chain molecules that spontaneously line up into crystal like arrangements. normal liquids don't.
Sugar is a solid. Look up crystal structure and aldoses and keytoses for more information on sugars and their crystals.
If you are talking about the brand of drink, Crystal Light is a solid (as a powder), and a liquid (when it is dissolved into water to make the drink). If you are talking about light reflecting from a crystal, light is energy, not matter.
After a while, some of the particles move so fast that they break free of the crystal lattice (which keeps a solid solid), and the lattice eventually breaks apart. The solid begins to go from a solid state to a liquid state - a process calledmelting.
