How is an amorphous solid related to a liquid?
An amorphous solid lacks a specific crystalline structure, similar to how a liquid does not have a fixed shape and flows freely. Both amorphous solids and liquids have particles that are not arranged in a regular pattern, allowing them to exhibit similar behaviors such as viscosity and lack of long-range order.
What is most likely to be amorphous a glass or solid sulfur or solid calcium or gold?
Glass is most likely to be amorphous compared to solid sulfur, solid calcium, or gold. Glass lacks a regular crystalline structure, unlike the other substances mentioned, making it amorphous in nature.
Is phosphorus a liquid or gas?
It is NEITHER at standard temperature and pressure. The pure element (which is practically never found in a pure form) is a white/yellow waxy solid, or a red amorphous solid, or a black powdery solid. But it does form both liquid and gaseous compounds at room temperature.
What is the change of state from liquid to a solid?
Solid --> Liquid = melting Other changes of state: Solid --> Gas = sublimation Gas --> Solid = deposition Liquid --> Solid = freezing/solidification Gas --> Liquid = condensation Liquid --> Gas = vaporization
Matter on Earth occurs in what three states?
Typically: Solid, Liquid, and Gaseous States
What is a glass solid or liquid?
It is an amorphous solid.

How is chocolate melting related to an amorphous solid?
Chocolate melting is related to an amorphous solid because chocolate has a disordered atomic arrangement, similar to that of an amorphous solid. Upon heating, the atoms in chocolate move more freely and lose their ordered structure, leading to the transformation from a solid to a liquid state.
Is hair a soild or a liquid or gas?
a solid, but it is an amorphous solid, which means it bends
Why is butter amorphous solid?
It would be almost useless as a liquid
What state of matter is custard?
An Amorphous solid
Is glass technically a liquid?
No, glass is not technically a liquid. It is an amorphous solid, which means it has a disordered atomic structure similar to a liquid but is still considered a solid.
Is melting wax a solid liquid or gas?
that's a good question. It is a amorphous solid because it expands or gradually loses shape.
Is it true that a amorphous solid has a definite melting point?
No, an amorphous solid does not have a definite melting point. Instead, it transitions gradually from a solid to a liquid over a range of temperatures. This is in contrast to crystalline solids, which have a specific melting point where they change from solid to liquid. Amorphous solids lack a long-range ordered structure, leading to their more gradual softening behavior.
Contrast the changes in a crystalline solid as it is heated to those in an amorphous solid that is heated?
As a crystalline solid is heated, it undergoes a well-defined melting point where its ordered structure breaks down to a disordered liquid state. In contrast, an amorphous solid softens gradually upon heating without a distinct melting point, as its structure lacks long-range order. The amorphous solid may eventually become a viscous liquid upon further heating.
Is glass an Amorphous solid?
Yes, glass is an amorphous solid.
Particles are arranged in no particular order in this type of solid?
amorphous
