Classification of crystalline solids and General Characteristics of ionic solids
General Characteristics of Ionic solids and Classification of crystalline solids Hello students , Today is chemistry Class .I hope this note is helpful you . * Classification of crystalline solid :- Most of the chemical compounds that we some across in our daily life are solids at room temperature . The particles constituting the solids may be atoms , ion or molecules . One of the most important feature of solids is that the constituent particles are most closely packed . As a result , they posses strong intermolecular forces of attraction . These strong molecular forces of attraction accounts for the rigidity , definite shape and definite volume in case of solids . Solids can be broadly divided into two types - the crystalline solids and the amorphous solids . A crystalline solid consists of regular arrangement of atoms , ions or molecules throughout the Crystal , Whereas in case of an amorphous solid , the regular arrangement o
