(a)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why equation 21.13 is not applicable in the given case is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
A unit cell of the crystal is the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms present in the crystal. The unit cell is the smallest and simplest unit of the crystal which on repetition forms an entire crystal. Unit cell can be a cubic unit cell or hexagonal unit cell. The classification of a unit cell depends on the lattice site occupied by the atoms.
(b)
Interpretation:
The method used by a scientist to measure the lattice energy of

- Silicon carbide, SiC, has the three-dimensional structure shown in the figure. (a) Name another compound that has the same structure.(b) Would you expect the bonding in SiC to be predominantlyionic, metallic, or covalent? (c) How do the bondingand structure of SiC lead to its high thermal stability(to 2700 °C) and exceptional hardness?arrow_forwardCalcium carbonate is insoluble in water. Yet, it dissolves in an acidic solution. Calculate the standard enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy change for the reaction between solid calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. What drives the reaction, the enthalpy change, or the entropy change?arrow_forwardExplain the terms of the Nernst equation.arrow_forward
- calculate the Kp for this reactionarrow_forwardThe name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been added to carbon. (The suffix hydrate from the Greek word hydor ("water") means "compound formed by the addition of water.") The actual chemical structure of carbohydrates doesn't look anything like water molecules bonded to carbon atoms (see sketch at right). But it is nevertheless possible to chemically extract all the hydrogen and oxygen from many simple carbohydrates as water, leaving only carbon behind. If you search the Internet for "reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar" you will find some impressive videos of this. Suppose you had 300.g of ordinary table sugar, which chemists call sucrose, and which has the chemical formula C12H22O11 . Calculate the maximum mass of water you could theoretically extract. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forwardSilicon carbide, SiC, has the three-dimensional structureshown in the figure.(a) Name another compound that has the same structure.(b) Would you expect the bonding in SiC to be predominantlyionic, metallic, or covalent?
