Crystalline solids have

Crystalline solids have

Options

  1. Ashort range order
  2. Blong range order
  3. Canisotropic distribution
  4. DAll of these.

Correct answer

D. All of these.

Step-by-step solution

Crystalline solids are anisotropic therefore their physical properties e.g. electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, refractive index are the different in different directions. But amorphous solids, liquids and gases are isotropic (i.e. same physical properties in all directions).
