   Amorphous means without form or shape. At the molecular level it means   
   jumbled, not organized into a crystal. You could think of amorphous   
   lead sulfate as a loose pile of jigsaw puzzle pieces and the   
   crystalline form as the solved, assembled puzzle. The loose pieces are   
   very easy to move around, while the assembled puzzle takes some effort   
   to break apart.
