An element with density 2.8 g cm−3 forms of the f.c.c. unit cell with edge length 4 X10−8 cm. Calculate the molar mass of the element.
(Given: NA = 6.022 X 1023 mol −1)
(i) What type of non-stoichiometric point defect is responsible for the pink colour of LiCl?
(ii) What type of stoichiometric defect is shown by NaCl?
OR
How will you distinguish between the following pairs of terms:
(i) Tetrahedral and octahedral voids
(ii) Crystal lattice and unit cell.
An element has atomic mass 93 g mol–1 and density 11.5 g cm–3. If the edge
the length of its unit cell is 300 pm, identify the type of unit cell.
Calculate the number of unit cells in 8.1 g of aluminium if it crystallizes in a
f.c.c. structure. (Atomic mass of Al = 27 g mol–1)
Give reasons :
In stoichiometric defects, NaCl exhibits Schottky defect and not Frenkel
defect.
Give reason:
Ferrimagnetic substances show better magnetism than antiferromagnetic
substances.
In the presence of magnetic field, the magnetic moments of domains of an antiferromagnetic substances are ordered in such a way half of the magnetic moments are aligned in one direction while the remaining half is in opposite direction. As a result of it, a net magnetic moment will be zero whereas in case of ferrimagnetic substances the magnetic moments of the domains of ferrimagnetic substances are aligned in parallel and antiparallel directions in unequal numbers. As a result, there will be the small value of magnetic moment for ferrimagnetic substances.
Analysis shows that FeO has a non-stoichiometric composition with formula Fe0.95O. Give reason.
An element ‘X’ (At. mass = 40 g mol–1) having f.c.c. the structure has a unit cell edge length of 400 pm. Calculate the density of ‘X’ and the number of unit cells in 4 g of ‘X’. (NA = 6.022 × 1023 mol–1 )
