MCQ
Amorphous solids:
  • possess sharp melting points.
  • B
    undergo clean cleavage when cut with a knife.
  • C
    do not undergo clean cleavage when cut with a knife.
  • D
    possess orderly arrangement over long distances.

Answer

Correct option: A.
possess sharp melting points.
Amorphous solids do not have a regular pattern of arrangement and hence, cannot be cut with knife for a clean cleavage.
