Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A regular repeating three-dimensional structure is characteristic of crystalline solids. Metallic solids are a subset of crystalline solids and are made up of metal atoms packed together. Alloys are mixtures of two or more metals, often with varying crystal structures. Amorphous solids do not have a regular repeating structure, while colloids are mixtures where the particles are too small to be seen with the naked eye, but too large to be truly dissolved in the solvent.
