SOLIDS ARE
COMPOSED
OF CIR YSTAL
Physicists Believe True Mole
cuIes Exist in Gases and
Liquids Only,
BY DAVID DIETZ
Science Editor of The Times

ri VERYONE is familiar wish the
r fact that certain substances
~ exist at times in the form of
crystals, that is the substance seems
to be built up of little geometric solids
of definite form.
Some substances form cubic crys-
tails Other crystals have more
complicated structure.
One of the interesting facts is that
certain substances can be grouped by
pairs according to the sort of crystals
from which they are formed.
There are two sugars with exactly
the same chemical constitutions and
forming the same sort of crystal with
the exception that one is a right
other a left-handed one. That is, one
crystal is the mirror-image of the
other, as in the case Of a persons
right and left hand
When the crystals Of certain sub
stances are broken, they split up in
to smaller crystals. These in turn
can be split into smaller crystals until
the crystals get so small that only a
high powered microscope will reveal
them.
Structure of Matter
From this, it seems reasonable to
regard the crystal as the next stage
in order in the structure of matter
electrons forming atoms, atoms
forming molecules, and molecules
forming crystals.
In the past, physicists have been in
the habit Of distinguishing between
two sorts of solids
The one which showed plainly that
it was composed Of crystals was des-
ignated as crystalline.
The other which showed no appar.
ent crystal structure but apparently
was just a formless mass, was called
amorphous
But newer view is now taken by
a majority of leading physicists
They believe that true individual
molecules exist in gases and liquids
only.
All solids, they believe, have a
crystalline structure.
Socalled amorphous solids are
thought to appear forrlees only be
cause the crystals Of which they are
formed are so very small and ar
ranged irregularly.
They believe further that the unit
OF crystal structure is not the mole.

is thought to have a cube.like struc-
ture. the atoms occurring at the cor
ners of the cubes, an atom Of potas-
SUM alternating with an atom of
chlorine
These atoms. it must be remem-
bered, are not at rest, but in con.
tinual vibration. Their vibration,
however. is thought TO be confined to
a limited area so that the essential
cube-like structure of the crystals is
maintained at all times
In potassium bromide the structure
is more elaborate, an atom occurring
not only at each corner of the i'm
aginary cube but in the center OF
each face as well
Sodium chloride or ordinary table
salt is thought to have a stiI more
complicated structure.
When a solid is heated so that it
turns liquid or gaseous. the physicist
believes that the geometricaI crystal
design breaks down and that the
atoms then regroup themselves into
definite regular molecules

bridge. While the bridge is a mar

nevertheless the sight made me
feel most uncomfortable. Any gi-

bridge always makes me shudder
when I think of the amount of
labor involved to construct it.

from Buster, without his knowl-
edge, were starting to give me tor
ment. and I was forced to stand

signal and offered to assist me
