1 . 1 General Characteristics of Solid State

(i) They have definite mass, volume and shape.
(ii) Intermolecular distances are short.
(iii) Intermolecular forces are strong.
(iv) Their constituent particles (atoms, molecules or ions)
have fixed positions and can only oscillate about their
mean positions.
(v) They are incompressible and rigid.

1.2 Amorphous and Crystalline Solids

Crystalline
Amorphous
(Greek amorphous = no form)
-long range order
-short range order
eg : Sodium chloride and quartz

are typical examples
eg : Glass, rubber and plastics

are typical examples
-sharp MP
-range of MP
The structure of amorphous solids is
similar to that of liquids.
On heating Amorphous
crystalline at some temperature.
Eg : Some glass objects from ancient civilizations are found to become milky
in appearance because of some crystallization.

Amorphous solids are also called as pseudo solids or super cooled liquids.
b.coz they have tendency to flow like liquids.
Window panes are thicker at bottom !
Crystalline solids are Anisotropic

i.e. some of their physical properties like
electrical resistance or
refractive index
show different values when measured along
different directions in the same crystals.
( bcoz of different arrangement of particles
in different directions)
Amorphous solids are Isotropic

1.4 Crystal Lattices and Unit Cells

characteristic
Crystal lattice : A regular three dimensional arrangement
of points in space is called a crystal
lattice.
There are only 14 possible three dimensional lattices. These are called Bravais
Lattices
Characteristics of a crystal lattice:
(a) Each point in a lattice is called lattice point or lattice site.
(b) Each point in a crystal lattice represents one constituent particle which may be
an atom, a molecule (group of atoms) or an ion.
(c) Lattice points are joined by straight lines to bring out the geometry of the lattice.

Unit cell : is the smallest portion of a crystal

lattice which, when repeated in different
directions, generates the entire lattice.
Characteristics of a unit cell :
(i) a, b and c - sides - may or may not be
mutually perpendicular.
perpendicular.
(ii) a, &
- angles
Thus, a unit cell is characterized by six

parameters, a, b, c, a, and .

1.9 Imperfections in Solids

Crystals though have long range order ---- are not perfect
Solids consists aggregate of large no. of small crystals.
crystals have defects ---when crystallization takes place at moderate or fast rate
even at extremely slow rate ---- crystals are not free from defects (imperfections)
Crystal defects : are basically irregularities in the arrangement of constituent
particles.
Line defects : are the irregularities

or deviation from ideal arrangement
in entire row
Point defects : are the irregularities

or deviation from ideal arrangement
around a point or an atom

....Zaid Mansuri

Crystal defects
Line defects
Point defects
Stoichiometric
defects
These are the point defects
that do not disturb the
stoichiometry of the solid.
They are also called intrinsic
or thermodynamic defects.
Impurity defects
Metal excess defects
Non-Stiochiometic
defects
Metal deficient defects
Due to anionic
vacancies
1. Vacancy defects
2. Interstitial defects
Due to extra cations

in the interstital
3. Frenkel defects
4. Schottky defects

1. Vacancy defects
When some of the lattice sites are vacant, the crystal is said to
have vacancy defect (Fig. 1.23).
- density of the substance decreases.
-This defect can also develop when a substance is heated.
- Shown by non-ionic solids

....Zaid Mansuri
2. Interstitial defects
When some constituent particles (atoms or molecules) occupy

an interstitial site, the crystal is said to have interstitial defect.
-density of the substance increases
- shown by non-ionic solids

Note : Ionic solids must always maintain electrical neutrality. Rather than simple
vacancy or interstitial defects, they show these defects as Frenkel and
Schottky defects.
3. Frenkel defects When the smaller ion (usually cation) is dislocated from its normal
site to an interstitial site it is called Frenkel defect.
- It creates a vacancy defect at its original site and an interstitial
defect at its new location.
- Frenkel defect is also called dislocation defect.
- density of the solid does not change.
- shown by ionic substance in which there is a large difference in
the size of ions,
- for example, ZnS, AgCl, AgBr and AgI due to
Vacancy
Interstitial

....Zaid Mansuri
4. Schottky defects
41
In this defect equal number of cations and anions are missing from
their positions.
- basically a vacancy defect.
- Electrical neutrality is maintained.
- density of crystal decreases
- Eg : in NaCl there are approximately 106 Schottky pairs per cm3
at room temperature. In 1 cm3 there are about 1022 ions. Thus,
there is one Schottky defect per 1016 ions.
- shown by ionic substances in which the cation and anion are of
almost similar sizes.
- Eg : NaCl, KCl, CsCl and AgBr.
- Note : AgBr shows both, Frenkel as well as Schottky defects.

Impurity defects
When some foreign impurities replace the ions of the

crystal, the crystal is said to have Impurity defect.
- e.g : SrCl2 in NaCl. Each Sr+2 replaces two Na+ ions to maintain
the stoichiometry.
One site is occupied while other remains vacant (cationic vacancy).
hence equal no. of cationic vacancies are generated in this case.
- e.g : CdCl2 + AgCl solid solution

---
Zn+2 + O2 + 2eyellow
- O is lost as O2 reversibly.
- excess of Zn+2 occupies the interstitial nearby.
- thus, Zn1+xO
Metal deficient defects
Many solids difficult to prepare in stoichiometric composition

- More anions than metals
- Fe0.93O to Fe0.96O
- some Fe+2
Fe+3 + e- to maintain the electrical neutrality of the crystal

1. Paramagnetism :
due to presence of unpaired electrons

weakly attracted by the magnetic field
magnetized in a magnetic field in the same direction
lose magnetism in the absence of mag. field
e.g : O2, Cu2+, Fe3+, Cr3+

....Zaid Mansuri
51
Diamagnetism:
weakly repelled by a magnetic field.
eg: H2O, NaCl and C6H6
They are weakly magnetised in a magnetic field in opposite direction.
shown by those substances in which all the electrons are paired and
there are no unpaired electrons.
Pairing of electrons cancels their magnetic moments and they lose their
magnetic character.

Ferromagnetism:
A few substances like iron, cobalt, nickel, gadolinium and CrO2 are attracted
very strongly by a magnetic field. Such substances are called ferromagnetic
substances.
can be permanently magnetised.
In solid state, the metal ions of ferromagnetic substances are grouped
together into small regions called domains. Thus, each domain acts as a tiny
magnet.
In an unmagnetised piece of a ferromagnetic substance the domains are
randomly oriented and their magnetic moments get cancelled. When the
substance is placed in a magnetic field all the domains get oriented in the
direction of the magnetic field and a strong magnetic effect is produced. This
ordering of domains persist even when the magnetic field is removed and
the ferromagnetic substance becomes a permanent magnet.

....Zaid Mansuri
53
Antiferromagnetism:
Substances like MnO showing antiferromagnetism have domain structure similar to
ferromagnetic substance, but their domains are oppositely oriented and cancel out each
other's magnetic moment

....Zaid Mansuri

54
27
7/8/2013
Ferrimagnetism:
the magnetic moments of the domains in the substance are aligned in parallel and antiparallel directions in unequal numbers.
weakly attracted by magnetic field as compared to ferromagnetic substances.
Examples: Fe3O4 (magnetite) and ferrites like MgFe2O4 and ZnFe2O4 are examples of
such substances.
These substances also lose ferrimagnetism on heating and become paramagnetic.
