Answer»

Correct OPTION is (d) Crystalline, amorphous and semi-crystalline

Easiest EXPLANATION: The atoms in the crystalline materials are regularly arranged with the same REPEATING UNIT in a long-range order. EXAMPLES of crystalline materials are metals.

The atoms in which the atoms are not regularly arranged over a long-range are called amorphous materials. Example: Glass, rubbers.

Whereas semi-crystalline is the combination of both crystalline and amorphous materials.
