उत्तर
The sharp melting point of crystalline solids is due to a regular arrangement of constituent particles observed over a long distance in the crystal lattice.
Explanation:
A solid is said to be crystalline if the various constituent structural units (atoms, ions or molecules) of which the solid is made, are arranged in a definite geometrical pattern within the solid.
The type of forces in crystalline solids are of long range order due to which they have sharp melting point.
