Answer : Broadly solids are divided into three categories;
i) Crystalline solids have a regular definite structure, in which the particles pack in a repeating pattern from one edge of the solid to the other.
ii) Amorphous solids have a random structure, with little unorganized pattern long-range order.
iii) Polycrystalline solids are those where an aggregate which consists of a large number of small crystals or grains in which the structure is regular, but the crystals or grains are found to be arranged in a random fashion.
Also solids can be divided into 3 more categories according to their bonds;
i) Covalent solids, like diamond, which forms crystals that can be viewed as a single giant molecule made up of an almost endless number of covalent bonds.
ii) Ionic solids are basically salts, such as NaCl, in which the molecules are held together by the strong force of attraction between ions of opposite charge.
iii) Metallic solids are found in metals which have the force of attraction between atoms of metals, such as copper and aluminum, or alloys, such as brass and bronze, are metallic bonds.

Answer:
Methane
Explanation:
The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.
The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.
Methane having a boling point of -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.

D
Explanation:
Glucose is produced through a process powered by sunlight that consumes Carbon Dioxide and produces oxygen as a waste product. In order for glucose to be produced, Carbon dioxide (a compound) must be, in essence, converted into a completely different chemical: dioxygen.
