Question

Q1:An interstitial alloy prepared from two metals. metal A with the larger atomic radius has a hexagonal closed-packed structure. What if the formula(for example:A2B,AB,AB2)of the alloy if atoms of metal B occupy the following?

All of the tetrahedral holes ......

One -half of the tetrahedral holes.......

One-half of the octahedral holes......


Q2:A number of metal fluorides adopt the fluorite structure in which the fluorite ions occupy all the tetrahedral holes in a face-centered cubic arry of metal ions. For at least one(maybe more) of the highlighted metallic elements in the figure, this crystal structure should not be possible. Which one(s)?


Mg

Ca

Sr

Ba

Cs



Q3:Calculate the density of CsCl? (CsCl described as  body-centered cubic, 412pm)

Explanation / Answer

All of the tetrahedral holes ...... AB2

One -half of the tetrahedral holes......AB

One-half of the octahedral holes......A2B


Mg
