Question

What effect does heating a solid to a hightemperature have have on its crystal lattice ??

Answer 1

Answer:

The lattice breaks apart and the ions flow freely.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Arrangement of atoms or group of atoms in a three dimensional ordered pattern in a crystal is said to be a crystalline lattice. They are arranged in a specific pattern with high symmetry. The heating of the crystal at high temperature will result in the increase of vibrational kinetic energy of the atoms in the crystal and this will result in the breaking of lattice apart and due to the breaking of lattice apart the ions will flow freely.

Thus, the heating of a solid at high temperature will lead to the lattice breaks apart and ions will flow freely.
