Unit #8 (3 of 4) Homework Assignment #17 January 2018

  1. The unit cell of an intermetallic compound consists of a face- centered cube that has an atom of element X at each corner and an atom of element Y at the center of each face. (18.39)

a) What is the formula of the compound?

b) What would be the formula if the positions of the two elements were reversed in the unit cell?

Metallic Bonds and Conduction Band

  1. How does the sea-of-electrons model (Chapter 4) explain the high electrical conductivity of gold? (18.53)
  2. The melting and boiling points of sodium metal are much lower than those of sodium chloride. What does this difference reveal about the relative strengths of metallic bonds and ionic bonds? (18.55)
