Which statement about amorphous solids is correct?
AThey have a sharp melting point
BThey melt gradually over a range of temperature and are isotropic
CThey are anisotropic in all physical properties
DThey have long-range order in the arrangement of particles
Answer: B
Amorphous solids have only short-range order, so they soften and melt over a range of temperature and show the same properties in all directions (isotropic).
