20 Potassium forms bcc structure. Which of the following describes potassium? * It has a coordination number of 12 thus allow each atom in the lattice to interact with more nearest neighbor atoms It has an edge length equal to the diameter of one atom, allowing the corner atoms to touch one another. It has a packing efficiency which is not too high; the atom occupies only about 68% of the space. It has one atom located at the corner of the cube, and additional atoms placed at the center of each of the six faces of the cube.

Materials containing the elements Y, Ba, Cu, and O that are superconductors (electrical resistance equals zero) at temperatures above that of liquid nitrogen were recently discovered. The structures of these materials are based on the perovskite structure. Were they to have the ideal perovskite structure, the superconductor would have the structure shown in pant (a) of the following figure. a. What is the formula of this ideal perovskite material? b. How is this structure related to the perovskite structure shown in Exercise 85? These materials, however, do not act as superconductors unless they are deficient in oxygen. The structure of the actual superconducting phase appears to be that shown in pan (b) of the figure. c. What is the formula of this material?
