Glittering Stones Crystal




A crystal is a solidin which the element atoms, molecules, or at times ions are packed in a regularly ordered, repeating pattern expanding in all three spatial dimensions.

Crystal

Crystalline structures arise in all classes of materials, with all types of chemical bonds. Almost all metal exists in a polycrystalline state; amorphous or single-crystal metals should be formed synthetically, frequently with great difficulty. Ironically bonded crystals could form upon solidification of salts, either from a dissolves fluid or when it condenses from a solution. Covalently bonded crystals are also extremely common, notable examples being diamond, silica, and graphite. Polymer materials usually would form crystalline regions, but the lengths of molecules usually prevent total crystallization.
