Question

What evidence can you cite for the microscopic crystal nature of certain solids? For the macroscopic crystal nature?

Answer 1

X-Ray diffraction

Explanation:

• x-ray diffraction and the macroscopic shape of crystals.
• X-ray diffraction is a nondestructive method generally utilized for the portrayal of smaller scale crystalline materials. The strategy has been generally applied for stage distinguishing proof, quantitative investigation and the assurance of structural flaws. Lately, applications have been stretched out to new territories, for example, the assurance of reasonably complex gem structures and the extraction of three-dimensional microstructural properties. This is the outcome of the higher goals of current diffractometers, the coming of high-power X-ray sources and the advancement of line-profile displaying ways to deal with conquer the line cover issue emerging from the one-dimensional information contained in a powder diffraction design.
