Question

Is glass a solid or an extremely slow moving liquid? Summarize and write three questions with the answers attached.

Answer 1

Answer:

It is neither a liquid nor solid.

Explanation:

Glass, however, is actually neither a liquid—supercooled or otherwise—nor a solid. It is an amorphous solid—a state somewhere between those two states of matter. And yet glass's liquidlike properties are not enough to explain the thicker-bottomed windows, because glass atoms move too slowly for changes to be visible.

Answer 2

Glass is not a slow moving liquid. It is a solid. Its called an amorphous solid because it lacks the ordered molecular structure of true solids. It is too ridged for it to liquify. Does glass ever stop moving? It is just a urban legend that glass is a slow moving liquid, it’s actually a highly resilient elastic solid, which means that it is completely stable. Does glass sag over time? Glass does not sag over a short amount of time, though glass can change shape over billions of years.
