Lower temperature 5. At which cooling rate, will a synthesize material have more disorders? a. Higher temperature b. Lower temperatureExplanation / Answer
1.
The stability of the species whether to bond or not depends on the material, ie if mixing gives stability, then two species with always mix and if mixing does not give stability it will not mix.
Example : oxygen exists in nature as O2 (one O mixes with other O to form O2 ) if oxygen does not mix in its case it will stay as[O] nascent oxygen which is unstable.
While as in other cases mixing is not required.
Hence option (c) is correct.
