Inspite of long range order in the arrangement of particles why are the crystals usually not perfect?
Options
- ABecause crystals lack a fixed structure.
- BBecause in the process of crystallisation some deviations from the ideal arrangement (i.e. defects) may be int
- CBecause the particles within crystals are disordered.
- DBecause crystals are inherently amorphous in nature.
Correct answer
B. Because in the process of crystallisation some deviations from the ideal arrangement (i.e. defects) may be int
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (B) Because in the process of crystallisation some deviations from the ideal arrangement (i.e. defects) may be introduced, therefore, crystals are usually not perfect.
