Crystal Structures

Solids are present all around us. They have different properties and applications. Diamond and graphite are two well-known solids. Diamond is the hardest material in the world and is used in making jewelry. Graphite on the other hand is soft. The lead of your pencil is graphite. Why are they so different in appearance and properties despite the fact they are chemically the same? Both are allotropes of carbon. The answer lies in the structure, the way constituent particles are arranged in the solids.

ou seal a container half-filled with water. Which best describes what occurs in the container? Water evaporates until the air becomes saturated with water vapor; at this point, no more water evaporates. Water evaporates until the air becomes overly saturated (supersaturated) with water, and most of this water recondenses; this cycle continues until a certain amount of water vapor is present, and then the cycle ceases. The water does not evaporate because the container sealed. Water evaporates, and thou water evaporates and recondenses simultaneously and continuously. The water evaporates until it is eventually all in vapor form. stify your choice, and for choices you did not pick, explain what is wrong with them.
