The transition temperature of all allotropic forms of an element are always less than its?
Correct answer: B. Melting point
- A. Freezing point
- B. Melting point
- C. Boiling point
- D. None of these options are correct
Explanation
The transition temperature of allotropic forms of an element refers to the temperature at which the element undergoes a transformation from one allotropic form to another. It has been observed that the transition temperature of the elements is always less than their melting points. Gray tin(cubic) >>> White tin(tetragonal) The transition temperature of tin is 13.2°C. The melting point of tin is 231.9˚C.

About Crystalline Solids
Crystalline solids contain particles arranged in a regular repeating lattice described by a unit cell. Their study includes coordination number, packing efficiency, density, anisotropy, cleavage, polymorphism and common crystal systems, along with ionic, molecular, covalent network and metallic crystals. Crystalline order differs from the random arrangement of amorphous solids.
