- 6. A compound consists of A-atoms and B-atoms, and its solid crystal forms a cubic unit cell structure, as shown below. A-atoms occupy corners and faces of the cube. B-atoms are inside the cube and are not shared by adjacent cubic unit cells. Based on the information here, we can conclude that (a) A-atoms form an FCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is A,B2. (b) A-atoms form an FCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is AB. (c) A-atoms form a BCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is A¬B2. (d) A-atoms form a BCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is AB. (e) None of the above. A-atoms (corners and faces) B-atoms (inside, not shared) a m n T OF THE FL EMENTSarrow_forward8.

- In the future, metals may be discovered that are even softer than very soft metals such as Au or Hg. Suppose one of these new metals (M) is discovered, and the melting points of MI2 and MF2 are measured. a) Would you expect the melting point of MI2 to be larger, smaller, or about the same as the melting point of HgI2 (100oC), and why? b) Would you expect the melting point of MF2 to be larger, smaller, or about the same as the melting point of HgF2 (5oC), and why?arrow_forwardA metal crystallizes in the face-centered cubic crystal structure with a unit cell edge of 3.52 x 10 -8 cm.The density of the metal is 8.90 g/cc.
