Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Amorphous solids do not have a regular three-dimensional arrangement of atoms. Unlike crystalline solids, their atoms or molecules are arranged in a random or disordered manner. Ionic crystals, molecular solids, and some types of solids may have a regular arrangement of atoms. Simply saying "solid" is too general and could refer to any type of solid.
