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.

Question

Explain the following:
a) Why does increasing the temperature cause a substance to change
in succession from a solid to a liquid to a gas? Explain.
b) Explain why a liquid has a definite volume but a gas does not?
c) Discuss how does an amorphous solid differs from a crystalline
solid?
d) Explain with examples, how bonds are formed in ionic compounds
and covalent compounds.
e) Covalent bonding occurs in both molecular and covalent network
solids. Why do these two kinds of solids differ so greatly in their
hardness and melting points?
