Assuming that the lithium ion is small enough so that the chloride ions are in contact, as in Figure 10.60, calculate the ionic radius for the chloride ion.

Crystal Lattices and Unit Cell

Consider a crystal. The regular and repeating pattern of constituent particles is the most distinguishing feature of crystalline solids. A crystal lattice is formed when these particles are replaced with representative points. The three-dimensional arrangement of constituent particles is known as a crystal lattice. Unit cell is that the smallest portion of a space lattice which when repeated in several directions, generate the whole lattice. Unit cell is a building block of a lattice. It is the smallest unit of cell.

6. A compound consists of A-atoms and B-atoms, and its solid crystal forms a cubic unit cell structure, as shown below. A-atoms occupy corners and faces of the cube. B-atoms are inside the cube and are not shared by adjacent cubic unit cells. Based on the information here, we can conclude that (a) A-atoms form an FCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is A,B2. (b) A-atoms form an FCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is AB. (c) A-atoms form a BCC structure; the empirical formula of the compound is A¬B2.
