Answer:

Amorphous solids

  • Amorphous solids are the solids whose constituent particles are of irregular shapes and have short range order.
  • These solids are isotropic in nature and melt over a range of temperature.
  • Therefore, amorphous solids are sometimes called pseudo solids or super cooled liquids.
  • They do not have definite heat of fusion.
  • When cut with a sharp-edged tool, they cut into two pieces with irregular surfaces.

Examples of amorphous solids

  • Glass
  • Rubber
  • Plastic
