Study Notes
Physical State
- The compound may be solid or liquid, and the solid can be crystalline or amorphous.
Crystalline solids
- The solids featuring highly ordered arrangements of their particles (atoms, ions, and molecules) in microscopic structures are called crystalline solids.
Amorphous solids
- The solids in which the particles are not arranged in any specific order or the solids that lack the overall order of a crystal lattice are called amorphous solids.
Colour
- The colour of the compounds must be observed, many organic compounds are colourless white or light in colour, and then they tend to acquire dark colour on exposure to air or light.
