Answer: orderly arrangement of particles

Explanation:

In a crystaline solid, the particles that compose the solid are arranged or packed in an orderly manner to form a three dimensional crystal lattice with a defined structure. Sodium chloride is a crystaline solid.

In an amorphous solid, the particles that compose the solid aren't arranged in an orderly manner hence the solid tends to be brittle, e.g glass

Answer: The space occupied by the gas at 400 torr and $25^{o}C$ is 250 mL.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 250 mL, $P_{1}$ = 800 torr, $T_{1} = 50^{o}C$

$V_{2} = ?$ , $P_{2}$ = 400 torr, $T_{2} = 25^{o}C$

Formula used is as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{800 torr \times 250 mL}{50^{o}C} = \frac{400 torr \times V_{2}}{25^{o}C}\\V_{2} = 250 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that space occupied by the gas at 400 torr and $25^{o}C$ is 250 mL.
