Chapter 9, Problem 83E
The memory metal, nitinol, is an alloy of nickel and titanium. It is called a memory metal because after being deformed, a piece of nitinol wire will return to its original shape. The structure of nitinol consists of a simple cubic array of Ni atoms and an inner penetrating simple cubic array of Ti atoms. In the extended lattice, a Ti atom is found at the center of a cube of Ni atoms; the reverse is also true.
a. Describe the unit cell for nitinol.
b. What is the empirical formula of nitinol?
c. What are the coordination numbers (number of nearest neighbors) of Ni and Ti in nitinol?

- An amorphous solid can sometimes be converted to a crystalline solid by a process called annealing. Annealing consists of heating the substance to a temperature just below the melting point of the crystalline form and then cooling it slowly. Explain why this process helps produce a crystalline solid.arrow_forwardSpinels are solids with the general formula AB2O4 (where A2+ and B3+ are metal cations of the same or different metals). The best-known example is common magnetite, Fe3O4 [which you can formulate as (Fe2+)(Fe3+)2O4]. Another example is the mineral often referred to as spinel, MgAl2O4. A crystal of the spinel MgAl2O4 The oxide ions of spinels form a face-centered cubic lattice. In a normal spinel, cations occupy of the tetrahedral sites and of the octahedral sites.

- What is a lattice? What is a unit cell? Describe a simple cubic unit cell. How many net atoms are contained in a simple cubic unit cell? How is the radius of the atom related to the cube edge length for a simple cubic unit cell? Answer the same questions for the body-centered cubic unit cell and for the face-centered unit cell.arrow_forwardConsider the three types of cubic units cells. (a) Assuming that the spherical atoms or ions in a primitive cubic unit cell just touch along the cubes edges, calculate the percentage of occupied space within the unit cell. (Recall that the volume of a sphere is (4/3)r3, where r is the radius of the sphere.) (b) Compare the percentage of occupied space in the primitive cell (pc) with the bcc and fcc unit cells. Based on this, will a metal in these three forms have the same or different densities? If different, in which is it most dense? In which is it least dense?arrow_forwardCalculate the percent of volume that is actually occupied by spheres in a body-centered cubic lattice of identical spheres You can do this by first relating the radius of a sphere, r, to the length of an edge of a unit cell, l. (Note that the spheres do not touch along an edge but do touch along a diagonal passing through the body-centered sphere.) Then calculate the volume of a unit cell in terms of r. The volume occupied by spheres equals the number of spheres per unit cell times the volume of a sphere (4r3/3).arrow_forward

Does MnO crystallize in the NaCl or the CsCl type structure? b. Assuming that the ionic radius of oxygen is 140. pm, estimate the ionic radius of manganese.arrow_forwardIn an FCC structure, the atoms are found on the corners of the cubic unit cell and at the center of each face.
