Crystalline Solids BLB 11th Chapter 11 Sections 7-8
Pyrite (FeS2, fool’s gold) Fluorite (CaF2) Amethyst (SiO2) – quartz + Fe & Mn
Crystal terms • Crystal – • Lattice – • Unit cell – • Edge length (do) – face edge corner
Packing in Crystals • Atoms and ions are represented by spheres. • The spheres stack in different patterns. • The close packing of spheres maximizes intermolecular force. • The patterns of stacking result in different types of unit cells and lattices.
Types of cubic unit cells • 3 questions: • How many atoms are there per unit cell? • How many nearest neighbors are there for each atom? • What is the relationship between atomic radius and the edge length?
Primitive (simple) Cubic _______ atoms per unit cell _______ nearest neighbors
Body-centered Cubic _______ atoms per unit cell _______ nearest neighbors
Face-centered Cubic(result of close packing) _______ atoms per unit cell _______ nearest neighbors
Close Packing Cubic close-packed (ccp) ABCABC layers Hexagonal close-packed (hcp) ABAB layers
