They are grown in Agar, as opposed to water (or any aqueous solution) because if the metal is grown quickly, as it would be in water, the crystals that are formed are hard to see, and their shape is usually undefined. However when they're grown in Agar jelly, the process is significantly slowed down, and after 1-2 days when you observe it, the crystals are usually larger and the shape can be clearly made out (providing you did the experiment right).

Is sodium metal composed of molecular crystals?
No, sodium or any other metal will form crystals of individual atoms, not molecules.
Is liquid metal a chemical property?
The fact that a metal (mercury) is a liquid at room temperature is a characteristic property of the metal, mercury. The temperature at which a metal melts to become liquid would be a chemical property of the metal.
Is mercury malleable or not malleable?
Mercury is a liquid metal.
Is benzene a metal?
Benzene is a liquid, not a metal.
What is molten ore?
When purified solid metal is heated under very high temperature it changes to liquid metal .This liquid metal is called molten metal .
What is liquid metal was used in thermometersr?
Mercury is a liquid metal used in thermometers. However, it becomes a solid at -37.9 F and it can cause mercury poisoning if ingested or inhaled. Therefore, most theremometers use ethyl-alcohol or a plastic strip covered with liquid crystals (called a liquid crystal thermometer).
Is mercury irritable?
No, the liquid metal itself is rather inert, though the vapor is toxic.
What is a metal crystals?
Metal crystals describe the crystal structures that are found in metals. Once metals freeze and become solid, crystals are formed from the atoms.
How do you apply acetone to metal before welding?
In general, you would not. Acetone is a rather flammable liquid.
Is sodium metal composed of molecular crystals?
No, sodium or any other metal will form crystals of individual atoms, not molecules.
Is copper a liquid or a metal?
No, not liquid (mercury is the only liquid metal known) Yes, it is a metal!
Are crystal always formed by ions?
No, not all crystals are formed by ions. Some crystals are formed by covalent bonds, where atoms share electrons, rather than by the attraction of ions. Additionally, some crystals can be formed by metallic bonds, where electrons are delocalized among a lattice of metal atoms.
How can crystals inside a nanocrystal metal different from from those found in a metal?
hello
The metal is liquid?
Mercury is a metal which is liquid at room temperature
Is it a gas liquid or solid?
Technechly is a liquid metal because its a liquid and acts like a metal.
How can you turn metal into liquid?
we have to get fire and get metal on it.it will be changed in to liquid
How do metal atoms form from metallic bonds in crystals?
No
