What is difference between amorphous and crystalline solids?
In a crystalline solid, the atoms are arranged in a regular pattern; in an amorphous solid, the atoms are arranged at random.
In a crystal what are the particles arranged in?
The components of the solid material (atoms or molecules) are ordered in a a crystal lattice.
What is describe by the VSEPR theory?
How atoms are arranged in a molecule.
How are atoms arranged within a crystal?
The atoms are arranged in repeating patterns.
How are atoms and molecules arranged?
In a fluid manner
What is difference between amorphous and crystalline solids?
In a crystalline solid, the atoms are arranged in a regular pattern; in an amorphous solid, the atoms are arranged at random.
Heat is the random movement of what?
Atoms or molecules.
What term is used for molecules that have identical molecular formulas but the atoms in each molecule are arranged differently?
Molecules that have identical molecular formulas but the atoms in each molecule are arranged differently are called isomers.
What do scientist notice when they look at atoms and molecules using electron microscope?
By looking at atoms and molecules with this tool, scientists have discovered that often atoms a nd molecules are arranged in orderly patterns
Why amorphous solids do not have sharp melting points while crystalline solids do have?
in crystalline solids, the atoms are arranged in an ordered fashion and hence they have sharp melting points. amorphous solids, due to random arrangement of the atoms do not have sharp melting points.
In a crystal what are the particles arranged in?
The components of the solid material (atoms or molecules) are ordered in a a crystal lattice.
The physical state of a type of matter depends mostly upon what?
atoms and molecules are arranged and how they move
What is the defintion of thermal energy?
energy of an object due to the random motion of its atoms and molecules
The energy associated with the random motion of molecules or atoms within a substance is?
Thermal energy
What is describe by the VSEPR theory?
How atoms are arranged in a molecule.
According to the kinetic theory .?
Gases comprise of molecules/atoms that collide with each other and the walls of a container as they are inconstant and random motion. Gas pressure is influenced by the velocity of these atoms/molecules.
What are 2 reasons molecules and atoms are different?
Molecules are different from atoms because they are formed by combining two or more atoms through chemical bonds, resulting in new chemical properties and behaviors. Additionally, molecules have a larger size and higher complexity compared to individual atoms as they consist of multiple atoms arranged in specific geometric configurations.
