    Study Notes

    The Solid Phase

    • Solids have a fixed shape and are nearly incompressible compared to gases and liquids.
    • Strong intermolecular forces result in low kinetic energy in solids, leading to minimal translational motion.
    • Atoms in solids vibrate in fixed positions around an equilibrium point.
    • Key characteristics include shape, particle size, and melting point.

    Crystalline Solids

    • Crystalline solids form through the precipitation of compounds from solutions into an ordered array.
    • Formation conditions include the type of solvent, temperature, pressure, and possible salt complexes.
    • Types of crystalline solids:
      • Cubic: Example - Sodium Chloride (NaCl)
      • Tetragonal: Example - Urea
      • Orthorhombic: Example - Ritonavir form II
      • Rhombohedral: Example - Iodine
      • Hexagonal: Example - Iodoform
      • Monoclinic: Example - Sucrose
      • Triclinic: Example - Boric Acid

    Amorphous Solids

    • Amorphous solids lack long-range order, thus do not form a crystalline lattice.
    • These materials are often referred to as glasses or supercooled liquids due to their random molecular arrangement.
    • Formed by rapid cooling of liquids, leading to a random molecular arrangement.
    • Amorphous solids can flow under sufficient pressure, resembling liquid behavior.

    Polymorphism

    • Polymorphism involves substances that are chemically identical but exist in multiple crystal forms.
    • Significant in the pharmaceutical industry, affecting factors such as regulatory approval, dissolution rate, solubility, bioavailability, and manufacturability of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs).
