1
New cards

Crystalline solids

Solids that have a repeating pattern of particles arranged in a three-dimensional crystal lattice.

2
New cards

Amorphous solids

Solids that lack a repeating pattern of particles and do not have a defined melting point.

3
New cards

Ionic solid

A solid composed of ions, such as table salt, that has a high melting point and conducts electricity when liquid or aqueous.

4
New cards

Molecular solid

Solids made up of molecules, such as water and sugar, that have intermolecular forces bonding them and are non-conductive.

5
New cards

Network solid

Solids like diamonds and graphite characterized by atoms bonded in a covalent network, resulting in very high melting points and non-conductivity.

6
New cards

Metallic solid

Solids made of metal atoms that form a 'sea' of valence electrons, allowing for varied melting points and conductivity in solid or molten states.
