Question
Statement I: Glass is not considered as a true compound.
Statement II: Glass does not have a definite melting point. Codes:Solution
- Glass is an amorphous solid, which means it lacks a long-range ordered structure. Hence, it is not a true compound but a mixture of substances like silica, soda, and lime.
- Glass does not have a sharp melting point but softens over a range of temperatures because of its amorphous nature. Thus, both statements are true, and Statement II correctly explains Statement I.
