Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is NOT a property of crystalline solids? (2021)
  • Step 1: Understand what crystalline solids are. They have a regular, repeating arrangement of atoms.
  • Step 2: Learn about anisotropy. This means that the properties of crystalline solids can change depending on the direction you measure them.
  • Step 3: Know that isotropy is the opposite of anisotropy. Isotropic materials have the same properties in all directions.
  • Step 4: Identify that amorphous solids, like glass, are isotropic because their atoms are arranged randomly.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the property that is NOT associated with crystalline solids is isotropy.
