Tate Crystals
‘8 Bionic crystals, the units occupying lative points are postive and negative ions. In sodium
chloride, for example, the units are Na* ions and CI” ions. Each ias of a given sign in beld by
oulombic forces of traction to all ions of opposite sign, Thee forces are very strong and
therefore the amount of energy required to separate ion from one another is very high. Accordingly,
Fi, 16, Sra oon,1190 PRINCPLES OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY
the ionic erytals have the following characterises
|. The beats of vaporisation of fone crystals are high,
2. The vapour pressures of ionic erystals at ordinary temperatures are very low:
3. The melting and boting points of ionic crystals are very high
4 Tone xystals are hard and brite
5. onic erystls are insulators in the solid state, The reason is that fons are ctrapped in fixed
places in the crystal latice and cannot move when elect field is applied, However, Whea melted,
they become good conductors of electricity. This i dve tothe fact that inthe maken state, the well
ordered arrangement of ion inthe erystas is destroyed and the fons ae in a position to move about
in the liquid medium when an electric field is applied
6. onic crystals are soluble in water and also in other polar solvents, They are insoluble or
very slighty soluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene and carbon tetrachloride.
7, Tonic solids are good conductors when dissolved in water. The ions held by coulombic forces
fall away from one anothet when dissolved in water or in any other solvent having high dietetic
constant. This i in accordance with the Coulomb's Isw that forces of attraction between oppositely
charged particles vary inversely a8 the dielectic constant.
CCharicterstc Structures of Tonle Crystals. Th-ionic model treats a crystal 2s an assembly of
oppositely charged spheres that interact primarily through coulombic forces. If the therme-dynamic
properties of the erystal calculated onthe basis of the ionic model agree with experimen, the crystal
‘may be taken as ionic, We shall briefly discuss the characersic structures which are KOIypES of
1 wide range of oni erytals
1. The Rock Salt (ACD Structure. This structure is based
on an fc. array of bulky anions in which the cations occpy all,
the octahedral holes (Fig. 18). Attematively, it can also be
treated as a structure in hich anidas occupy all the octahedral
holes in an fc, array of cations, I is evjdet from the diagram
that eich ion is sounded by an octahgron of sx counterions.
‘Tous, the coordination number (C.N.} of each type at ion is 6
and the structure is refered to as (6 : 6) coordination. In this
‘otation, the fst number in the parenthesis is the coordination
‘umber ofthe cation and the second number isthe coordination
umber of the aon,
order to determine the number of ions of each type ia a
unit cell, the follwing eles should be borne in mind

(An ion in the body ofa unit cll belongs entirely to that unt cell and counts as 1.
(An in in a face is shared by two unit ces and comtibutes 1/2 wo the wit el in queton,
(ii) Anion onan edge is shared by four unit eels and Uns contributes 1/4
(Go) Am ion ata vertex is shared by eight unit ells that share the vertex and so contributes 1/8.
Applying tie abaye-rules to the rock salt (NaCl) smctur, we fndthat here are four Na* fons
‘and: for CF on so that each unit cell conta four NaCl formula uni.

2, The Cesium Chloride Structure, This structure (Fig. 19) has a obic uit cell with each
vertex occupied by an anion having a eation at the cenie of the unt ell (or vce versa). The
coordination number for both types of ions is & and the stricture is referred to as (8 : 8)
conninatia.

13. The Zine Bled (Sphalerite) Structure. This structure (Fig. 20), devving its nar from the
mineral form of Za, is used on an expanded f..c. anionic
Tatice where cations occupy one type of ecahedral hoes,
ach anion is surounded by four neighbours, Thus the srue-
ture as (4 : 4) coordination, 2
4. The Wurtate Structure. This structure (Fig. 21) differs
from the zine bleade structure in being derived from an
expanded hexagonally close packed array of anions rather than
an fcc. array, However, as in the zinc blede structure, the
cations oeeupy one type of tetrahedral holes. The structure,
thus, has a (4: 4) coordination,
5. The Fnotte Structure. This stucrose (Fig. 22) takes
its ame from CaF. In his structure, the cations occupy half
the cubie holes ofa primikve cubic array of anions. Alternatively, the anlons.oceupy both types of
tetahedril hoes in an expanded Ce. lace of cations. (In the antiuorite structure, an example
‘of which is K,O, the roles of the cations and anions are
reversed) In tbe Morte structure, the coordination num-
ber is. 8 for the cations eight fluoride ios forming a cube
about each calcium ia) and 4 for the aaions (four Ca2*
fons tetrahedrally arranged about each F> ion), Thus, the
‘oorte structare has (4) coondnaton,
6. The Rutile Structure, This strusture (Fig. 23)
lakes its mame ftom rile, the mineral form of fig
(Y) onige, 710s, The coordination aumbers are 6 forthe
cations (x ore anions arranged approximately octahe-
Ally about the TH fons) and 3 forthe aoa (three TH#*
‘ions arrange trigonally about the oxide ions). The rutile
structure has, ths, (6 3) coordination,
