C. 2 Types of Solids:
1. _____________________________________
•
Ex: Minerals, sand, clay, limestone, metals,
carbon (diamond and graphite), salts ( NaCl, KCl
etc.), all have crystalline structures
2. _____________________________________
•
Ex: window glass, many polymers (cement)
II. CRYSTALLINE SOLIDS:
• Consist of single crystals or as groups of crystals fused together
• Majority of solids
Not all pure substances form crystals because it is a delicate process.
• __________________________________
• __________________________________
Ex: A diamond is a perfect crystal lattice while the graphite arrangement is
more random.
A. Types of Crystals
•
____________________ = a rigid body; a substance in which the particles are
arranged in an orderly, geometric, repeating pattern.
_____________________= simplest repeating unit of a crystal
•
___________________________ = unit cells repeated over and over
(block/brick) in a definite geometric
arrangement
Constructed of many unit
cells packed solidly together
2
1) ___________________________________
•
•
•
Ionically bonded positive and negative ions in a regular
pattern
hard, brittle, high MP, good insulators
Ex: NaCl
2) _______________________________________
•
•
•
Single atoms covalently bonded to nearest neighbors in an extensive pattern
hard, brittle, high MP, usually non-conducting or semi-conducting
Ex: Diamonds, graphite, quartz
3) ____________________________________________
•
•
Positive metal ions surrounded by negative valence electrons that belong to
the crystal as a whole and are attracted to the positive ions
Good conductors, varying MP, ductile, malleable
4) __________________________________________
• Covalently bonded molecules attracted and held together by attractive forces
(IM forces: LDF, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bonding)
• Low MP, relatively soft, easily vaporized, good insulators
• Ex: Sugar (sucrose), ice crystals
5) ____________________________________________
a) _________________________________ = a crystalline compound with
water molecules incorporated in the crystal
•
Some, but not all, crystals form hydrates when crystallizing from
water solutions.
b) ____________________________ = crystal with water molecules removed
c) ____________________________= crystal that will absorb water from the
air
d) some crystals will absorb so much water from the air they will form a water
solution (___________________________________________)
•
Ex: sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
e) ______________________ = a drying agent that is used to keep water
from substances
•
Ex: Silica gel

B. Many different substances have the SAME crystalline
structure:
• ____________________________________ = Crystals of different solids with the
same (iso) structure and shape (morphism)
Ex: NaCl and KCl
C. The same substance may crystallize into two or more
different patterns:
• _______________________________________= 1 substance with more than 1
crystalline shape
•
Ex: CaCO3
o Calcite is rhombohedral and aragonite is orthorhombic

D. What Factors Affect Crystal Formation?
1. _____________________________
2. _____________________________
Ex: carbon crystallizes as a diamond at HIGH pressure and crystallizes as
graphite at LOW pressures
III. AMORPHOUS SOLIDS:
• Particles are arranged __________________________
• ___________________shape; no crystal form
• _______ defined melting point
• Ex: rubber, glass, plastics, synthetic fibers
•
Ex: ______________________= between solid/liquid, melt in one dimension at a time
Described as _________________ - having different properties in different
dimensions
o Optical and electrical anisotropy present in liquid crystals
Ex: mood rings, insect wings, LCD-calculators, digital watches
IV. CRYSTAL DEFECTS:
O
A perfect crystal is ___________! Most crystals contain________________!
•
________________= mistakes in the crystal
_____________________ = unit cells do not line up; particles are out of position
_________________= impurity in crystal
Ex: Diamond inclusion

•
____________________= crystals are deliberately made impure
Ex: Semiconductors (silicon, germanium) have impurities added to them to
increase electrical conductivity
Germanium crystal
doped
with indium.
V. Additional VOCAB:
• ___________________________________= change from solid to gas
Ex: Iodine crystals, dry ice
Dry Ice
Iodine
