Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1CQ
To determine
The type of material if the atoms are in irregular arrangements.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1CQ
If the atoms are in irregular arrangements, the material is amorphous.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
A particle or an atom existing in the universe as a smallest unit is called as an atom. A material is made up of such atoms. The arrangement of such atoms may regular or irregular in shape.
In case of amorphous materials the atoms are arranged randomly and there is no order of atoms contained. Example of an amorphous material is silicon.
If the atoms are in irregular arrangements, then it is called as an amorphous material.
Conclusion:
Thus, the complete statement is, “If the atoms are in irregular arrangements, the material is amorphous.”
