Question

Transition temperature is exhibited by both element and compound. Explain

Answer 1

Elements having allotropic form and compounds having polymorphic forms the transition temperature. Allotropic form is when element shows two or more crystalline form where as polymorphic form is when compound shows two or more crystalline form. The transition temperature occurs at the temperature when two crystalline forms of the same substance can exist in balance hence solids which contain allotropic or polymorphic form can achieve transition temperature. 

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge\underline{Answer:}}$ ,

Elements having allotropic form and

compounds having polymorphic forms

the transition temperature. Allotropic

form is when element shows two or more

crystalline form where as polymorphic

form is when compound shows two or

more crystalline form. The transition

temperature occurs at the temperature

when two crystalline forms of the same

substance can exist in balance hence

solids which contain allotropic or

polymorphic form can achieve transition

temperature.
