A structure is considered unstable when it is unable to support loads or forces acting upon it, leading to potential collapse or failure. This can occur due to factors such as design flaws, material defects, or excessive external forces. Regular structural assessments and maintenance are important to prevent instability.

What type of structure does Butanol consist of?
Butanol is a form of alcohol. It is formed from a structure made of 4 carbon molecules. The result is unstable enough to be very flammable. It is also water soluble.
Unstable atomic nuclei decay over time into stable nuclei causing a mineral to be?
unstable and eventually transform into a stable form. This process is known as radioactive decay and can result in the mineral changing its chemical composition or structure.
What is an unstable isotope?
Unstable isotopes are radioactive isotopes, can disintegrate and emit radiations.
Is the tightrope walker in stable or unstable equilibrium?
Unstable.
Which is described as an unstable short lived structure caused by the effective collision of particles?
A transition state is described as an unstable, short-lived structure resulting from the effective collision of particles during a chemical reaction. It represents the highest energy state along the reaction pathway and is where old bonds break and new bonds form. The transition state determines the rate of the reaction and influences its overall mechanism.
