What solid is amorphous and brittle?
Glass is brittle and amorphous.
What are the examples of brittle?
glass, ceramics, bones, etc.
What is the most brittle substance?
It varies with the temperature. Glass is brittle at room temperature but becomes soft at high temperature. Glass also does not crystallize so it is considered a liquid even when cool. Spaghetti is brittle when dry but softens as water is absorbed.
How would you find the density of plasticine?
Roll the plasticine into a sphere and measure the diameter and use the formula for the volume of a sphere V=pi r^2, then weight the sphere to get the mass and use Density = Volume upon Mass. Alternatively, use Archimedes' principle: 1) Weigh a piece of plasticine to get its mass. Very carefully fill a glass with water so full that it cannot contain one more drop of water. Immerse the plasticine in the glass, collecting the water that has run out of the full glass. The volume of the water is equal to the volume of the plasticine. Determine the volume of the water by either weighing it (density of pure water is 1 g per mL) or by accurately measuring the volume. Density = mass (g)/ volume (mL) 2) If you have a balance that can determine mass of an hanging object, first weigh your plasticine to determine its mass. Then attach it to string and take its mass hanging (the string also has mass). Then take its mass while the plasticine is just submersed in water. It will weigh less when submersed in water. The loss of mass when submersed is equal to the mass of water that has the same volume as the plasticine. (density of water is 1 g per mL) Now you can determine the volume of the plasticine since the mass lost in g equals the volume of water in mL. Density is the original mass divided by the volume.

no because rubber is hard as :-- and glass cannot
What solid is amorphous and brittle?
Glass is brittle and amorphous.
How would you use the word 'brittle' in a sentence?
Window glass is brittle.
How do you use brittle in a sentence?
Glass is usually brittle and has to be handled with care
What material is more brittle wood cast iron steel or glass?
Cast iron is very brittle in its basic form, with yield point very close to fracture point. However, glass is the most brittle, having no yield point - it is perfectly elastic before failure
What is the simile for As brittle as?
glass
What are properties of glass that are useful?
glass is highly brittle. it is used for insulation and decoration.
Can you name brittle materials?
glass and cast iron
What are the examples of brittle?
glass, ceramics, bones, etc.
Would glass or plastic shelving be better in a freezer and can you explain your choice?
Plastic shelving would be better in a freezer than glass because the extreme cold would make the glass more brittle and thus more likely to break.
