10. Crystal
    A discrete solid where the atoms,ions or molecules are arranged in an ordered 3-dimensional structure. The regular structures have the ability to 'bend' or diffract beams of X-rays, and this aspect of crystallography is an extremely helpful tool in structure determination.

11. crystal
    A sample of a crystalline solid that has a regular shape bound by plane surfaces (facets) that intersect at characteristic angles. The shape results from the arrangement of the substances atoms, ions, or molecules. Most crystals contain defects that can strongly affect their optical and electrical properties.
