Given below are two statements : One is labelled as Assertion A and other is labelled as Reason R. Assertion A : The dihedral angles in H_2 O_2 in gaseous phase is 90.2^@ and in solid phase is 111.5^@ . Reason R : The change in dihedral angle in solid and gaseous phase is due to the difference in the intermolecular forces. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below for A and R.

Assertion: Quartz glass is crystalline solid and quartz is an amorphous solid Reason: Quartz glass has long range order

Solids have properties like rigidity a definite shape and a define volume. If intermolecular forces are greater than thermal energy, substances exist as solid. Solids can be classified into two types. Crystalline solids and amorphous solids, Crystalline solids have regular arrangement of particles, definite geometric shapes, sharp melting points and definite heat of fusion. They are anisotropic and undergo clean cleavage. On the other hand, amorphous solid have no regular arrangement of particles, irregular shapes, melt over a range of temperature, no definite heat of fusion. They are isotropic and undergo irregular cleavage. The melting point of crystalline solids is sharp due to:
