() Locating Octahedral Voids
Let_us again consider a unit cell of cep or fee lattice [Fig. 2(a)]. The body centre
of the cube."C is not occupied but it {s surrounded by six atoms on face centres.
If these face centres are joined, an’ octahedron is generated. Thus, this unit cell
has one octahedral vold at the body centre of the cube.
Besides the body centre, there is one octahedral void at the centre of cach
of the 12 edges. (Fig. 2(b)]. It is surrounded by six atoms, four belonging to the a
same unit cell (2 on the corners and 2 on face centre) and two belonging to two i
adjacent unit cells. Since each edge of the cube is shared between four adjacent
Le
unit cells, so is the octahedral vold located on it. Only 4" of each void belongs
to a particular upit cell.

Solids have definite mass, volume and shape. This is due to the fixed position of
their constituent particles, short distances and strong interactions between them.
In amorphous solids, the arrangement of éonstituent particles has only short
range order and consequently they behave like super cooled liquids, do not have
sharp melting points and are isotropic in nature. In crystalline solids there is long
range order in the arrangement of their constituent particles. They have sharp
melting points, are anisotropic in nature and their particles have characteristic
shapes. \ProPertles of Cry a sea an a ee
between Tiel constituent particles) ‘On this basis, they can be divided into four
-categories, namely: molecular, ionic, metallic arid covalent solids. They differ
widely in their properties. vos
The constituent particles in crystalline solids are arranged in a regular pattern
which extends throughout the crystal. This arrangement {s often depicted in the
form of a three dimensional array of points which is called crystal lattice. Each
lattice point gives the location of one particle in space. In all, fourteen different
types of lattices\are possible which are called Bravais lattices. Each lattice can be
generated by repeating its small characteristic portion called unit cell. A unit cell
fs characterised by its edge lengths and three angles between these edges. Unit
cells can be either primitive which have particles only at thelr corner positions or
centred. The centred unit cells have additional particles at their body centre (body-
centred), at the centre of each face (face-centred) or at the centre of two opposite
faces (end-centred)\fhere are seven types of primitive unlt cclls.yraking centred
unit cells also into account, there gre fourteen types of unit cells in all, which
