Crystallises
Crystallises refers to the process in which atoms, ions, or molecules arrange themselves in a repeating pattern to form a solid crystal structure. This process typically occurs when a substance transitions from a liquid or gas phase to a solid state, resulting in the formation of well-defined geometric shapes with distinct facets and angles. Crystallisation can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the presence of impurities, leading to a wide variety of crystal forms and structures. This phenomenon is fundamental to many natural processes and has important applications in fields such as materials science, chemistry, and geology.
