A network solid(crystal) or covalent network solid is a chemical compound in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bond s in a continuous network. In a network crystal there are no individual molecule s and the entire crystal may be considered a macromolecule.

A network solid is a chemical compound wherein the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network. It differs from a crystal lattice because a crystal lattice is formed through ionic bonds.

How is crystal salt being formed in the process of evaporation?

Salt are mostly ionic compounds. A typical feature of ionic compounds is that the molecules form a network of ions called a crystal lattice. This network is formed due to electrostatic attraction of the ions. The positive ions get attracted to the negative ions surrounding it and vice versa. Thus, salt has a crystal like structure, which remains even if the salt has just evaporated.


Are network solids malleable?

Covalent network solids are generally not malleable. They have crystal structures that lack obvious glide planes and the covalent bonds are difficult to break and remake. This is a contrast with the metals where many of the crystal structures have glide planes and metallic bonds are relatively easy to break and remake.
