Describe the meaning of an amorphous material. Give one example of an amorphous material from your everyday life.

Questions:

1. Analyze the following chart on the  Metric System.  Express the  uncertainty of 19 trillionths of a meter in scientific notation

The Metric System

2. Compare the uncertainty shown above with the diameter of an atom.

a. To which percent  of the atomic diameter can the three dimensional position of an array of atoms be represented by an image? How many  atomic  layers  can potentially be measured within the uncertainty?

3. Research the topic of defects in crystals. Make a Concept Map of flowchart of the different types of defects, or provide  definitions with pictures. How many types of defects can be encountered? What are the benefits  of having defects in materials? Can you think of disadvantages?

4.

a.  Describe the meaning of an amorphous material. Give one example of an amorphous material from your everyday life.

b. Provide a chart of at least 4 properties of amorphous materials and crystalline materials.  Can a crystalline material present areas or volumes  of amorphous structure? Provide an example.

4. An electron can be a wave or a particle ( particle-wave duality,  according to De Broglie Hypothesis).
