The mean speed of conduction electron in Cu is electrons1.5 × 106 ms-1 and the frequency of vibration of the copper atoms at room temperature is about 4 × 1012 s-1. Estimate the drift mobility of electrons and the conductivity of Cu. The density of Cu is 8.96 g cm-3 and the atomic mass is 63.56 g mol-1.
In solid KCI the smallest distance between the centers of a. potassium ion and a chloride ion is 314 pm. Calculate the length of the edge of the unit cell and the density of KCI, assuming it has the same structure as sodium chloride.
However, the molecule we can encounter everyday continuously vibrates and interact with the surrounding causing its bond vector to vary slightly. According to a new spectroscopy analysis, the adjacent bond vectors was found to be
A = 0.82i + 0.99j + 0.84k
B = 1.09i + -1.01j + -0.97k
What is the angle (in degrees) between the bonds based on this new data?
