The sharp melting point of crystalline solids compared to amorphous solids is due to

A

a regular arrangement of constituent partticles observed over a short distance in the crystal lattice

B

a regaular arrangment of constituent particles observed over a long distance in the crystal lattivce

C

same arrangement fo constituent particles in different directions

D

different arrangment of consittuent particles in different directions

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Crystalline solid has regular arrangement of consitiuent partices observed over a long distance in the crystal lattce Due to this regular arrangement ctystalline solid have sharp melting point .
