Question
Chapter 24, Problem 24.45QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The given compound forms a liquid crystal or not has to be explained
Concept Introduction:
- Liquid crystal exhibits both the properties of liquids (particles are not arranged and are free to move in all directions) and solids (articles are arranged regularly).
- Liquid crystals are anisotropic, that is it shows different properties in different directions based on the orientation of particles in it.
- A substance to be a good liquid crystal, must possess rigid structure and must be relatively long while comparing with its width.
