- Does crystalline glass exist? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
In European rules, "lead crystal" implies more than 24% lead oxide in the formula There have been concerns about lead leaching from lead glass, so that alternatives such as barium have been replacing lead Manufacturers are permitted to call low-lead or "lead-free" glass "crystal glass" or "crystalline glass"
- inorganic chemistry - Why is sand, sand; and why is glass, glass; While . . .
While a glass maker can take his glass and let it cool in the atmosphere or in water, molten silicate magma ("glass") deep in the Earth is surrounded by rocks that are in the hundreds of degrees This slow cooling facilitates crystallization of the SiO 2 into quartz rather than glass
- glass - How to identify lead crystal glassware? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
$\begingroup$ Normal glass has a density of $\approx 2 4 \; \mathrm{g m^3}$ and lead glass $\ge 3 1 \; \mathrm{g m^3}$ so I am surprised that you have found this to be non-discriminating The difference in refractive index will be harder to measure unless you have the apparatus but you can measure the density with scales and via Archimedes
- Is glass an amorphous solid or supercooled liquid?
In glass forming systems, as you drop the temperature below the crystal phase melting temperature, one would expect to nucleate the crystal phase For various reasons this does not happen Instead, the liquid continues to cool, and the viscosity continues to increase as one might expect upon cooling
- What is the difference between an amorphous solid and glass?
While a glass is generally considered to be a supercooled, configurationally frozen liquid, not all amorphous solids are glasses For example, amorphous silicon is a four-fold coordinated semiconducting solid, much like crystal silicon Liquid silicon is 8-12 fold coordinated with metallic bonding
- How does HF dissolve glass? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
$\begingroup$ I know the reaction, but my question is about mechanism how does this happen, does fluorine go interstities of the glass or h+ or the kinetic energy is responsible for it Technically, HF doesn't dissolve glass since a solvent does not react with your compounds ; thats why I said does it disintegrate glass then because of what
- Observing crystal of water - Chemistry Stack Exchange
The easiest way to create ice crystals is to cool a glass microscope slide (possibly with very small amounts of the nucleation materials on it) to well below 0°C and then expose it to humid air at about 2 - 5°C (35°-40°F)
- decomposition - What are the crystals that have formed around the top . . .
$\begingroup$ A simple test is to wet a piece of red litmus paper and stick it on the bottom of a watch glass Dissolve the crystals in water in a beaker Add a couple of NaOH pieces Put watch glass on top of beaker The NaOH should release NH3 in air which would turn red litmus blue $\endgroup$ –
- crystal structure - Is a diamond a single molecule? - Chemistry Stack . . .
Diamond is a covalent network solid, like a number of other common materials (quartz, graphite, glass, and a whole bunch of stuff) Because they are not discrete molecules - there is no 'diamond' molecule the same way there are molecules of caffeine, benzoic acid, citric acid, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, etc - network solids form one of the two
- crystal structure - What is the reason for isotropy in amorphous solids . . .
In the second picture atoms are not orderly arranged No matter where you go in crystal of a amorphous solid, the disarrangement will be same Since in every direction, disarrangement is same, physical properties along every direction is also same Therefore, amorphous solids are isotropic In the first picture, the arrangement is orderly
