They possess a definite heat of fusion. Amorphous solids do not have any specific heat of fusion

Answer 2

ANSWER:

Difference between Crystalline and Amorphous Solids.

$\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-4}\Large{S.No.}&\Large{Parameter}&\Large{Crystalline Solids}&\Large{Amorphous Solids}\\\cline{1-4}1)&Position of particles&Fixed&Not Fixed\\2)&Range Order&Long range order&Short range order\\3)&Rigidity&Rigid&Not Rigid\\4)&New Cleavage surface&Smooth&Rough\\5)&Melting Point&Fixed&Not Fixed(Range)\\6)&Crystal System&Present&Absent\\7)&Nature&Anisotropic&Isotropic\\8)&Also known as&True Solids&Pseudo(False) Solids\\9)&Examples&Fe, Cu&Glass, Rubber\\\cline{1-4}\end{tabular}$New terms:

• Range Order = regular pattern of arrangement of particles which repeats itself periodically
• Cleavage Surface = tendency of solids, to break in preferred directions so as to yield more or less smooth surfaces
• Isotropic = Properties of a material are identical in all directions.
• Anisotropic = Properties of a material vary in different directions.
