Explanation / Answer

1)a- concrete

aggregates an essential ingredient in concrete.Aggregates, which account for 60 to 75 percent of the total volume of concrete, are divided into two distinct categories--fine and coarse. Fine aggregates generally consist of natural sand or crushed stone.Coarse aggregates are any particles greater than 0.19 inch.

2)c- amorphous solid

it is non crystalline,a hard, brittle substance, typically transparent or translucent, made by fusing sand with soda and lime and cooling rapidly.

4)b-polymer

Silicone include any inert, synthetic compound made up of repeating units of siloxane, which is a chain of alternating silicon atoms and oxygen atoms, frequently combined with carbon or/and hydrogen.

5)c- an element
Silicon is a chemical element with symbol Si
atomic number 14.
A hard and brittle crystalline solid with a blue-gray metallic luster.
It is non-metal with semiconducting properties, used in making electronic circuits.

6)a-an oxide
also known Silicon dioxide, chemical formula SiO
a hard, unreactive, colourless compound which occurs as the mineral quartz and as a principal constituent of sandstone and other rocks

7)d-plastic deformation
Once the forces are no longer applied, the object returns to its original shape.

8)c-failure caused by fluctuating loads
Fatigue occurs when a material is subjected to repeated loading and unloading.

9)A
toughness is the ability of a material to absorb energy and without fracturing.

10)b-ability to deform plastically without fracturing
also resistance to bending, scratching, abrasion or cutting.

11)c-resistance to elastic deformation
resists deformation in response to an applied force
It is the complementary concept is flexibility

12)B-ability to deform plastically without fracturing

ductlity is the ability of a material to change shape (deform) usually by stretching along its length’.
