Tutorial two- Structure of crystalline solids

1. Show that the atomic packing factor for a BCC crystal structure is
2. Calculate the radius of a palladium atom given that has an FCC crystal structure, a
density of and atomic weight of
3. List the point coordinates for all atoms that are associated with the FCC cell
4. Within a cubic unit cell, sketch the following directions.
a. [ ]
b. [ ̅ ̅ ]
c. [ ̅ ]
d. [ ]
5. Convert [ ] and [ ̅ ] directions into the four-index Miller-Bravais for hexagonal unit
cells
6. a) Derive linear density expressions for BCC [ ] and [ ] directions in terms of
atomic radius R
b) Compute and compare linear density for these two directions for Iron
7. The metal niobium has a BCC crystal structure. If the angle of diffraction for set of
planes occurs at (first order diffraction) when monochromatic radiation
having a wavelength of is used, compute:
a. The interplanar spacing for this set of planes
b. The atomic radius for niobium atom
8. What is the difference between atomic structure and crystal structure?
9. Some hypothetical metal has the simple cubic structure as shown in Figure 1. If its
atomic weight is and the atomic radius is , compute its density.
