Worked practice questions

Solids are classed as crystalline or amorphous by the nature of their:

  1. Order
  2. Colour
  3. Weight
  4. Odour
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Order

1. The two classes differ in how their particles are arranged. 2. One has a regular pattern, the other does not. 3. So the basis of classification is the nature of order. _Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Chapter 1, The Solid State._

In a crystal, the arrangement of particles is ordered and:

  1. Accidental
  2. Repetitive
  3. Scattered
  4. Disordered
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Repetitive

1. The pattern in one region predicts every other region. 2. It carries on in all three dimensions. 3. So the arrangement is ordered and repetitive. _Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Chapter 1, The Solid State._

A crystal is said to have order that is:

  1. Long range
  2. Short range
  3. Zero range
  4. Half range
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Long range

1. The regular pattern repeats over the entire crystal. 2. It holds however far one looks from the starting point. 3. So the crystal has long range order. _Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Chapter 1, The Solid State._
