Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 1

Which of the units given can be used to build the structure of covalent crystal, diamond:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 1

Diamond and Graphite, Two allotropes of carbon are covalent network solids which differ in the bonding geometry of the carbon atoms.

In diamond, the bonding occurs in the tetrahedral geometry, while in graphite the carbons bond with each other in the trigonal planar arrangement. This difference accounts for the drastically different appearance and properties of these two forms of carbon.

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 3

Dry ice, or solid carbon dioxide, is a perfect example of a molecular solid. The van der Waals forces holding the CO2 molecules together are weak enough that dry ice sublimes, i.e. it passes directly from the solid to the gas phase, at -78oC.

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 7

An element exists as hexagonal close packed structure as well as cubic closed packed structure. In which case the element would have higher density:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 7

The density of the element will be same in both the cases as the two structures will have the same coordination number and hence the same packing fraction.

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 8

The molar volume of KCl and NaCl are 37.46 ml and 27.94 ml. The ratio of unit cell edges of the two crystals is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 8

Molar volume =N4/3πr³ where N is Avogadro number ,

Now Molar volume of KCl is 37.46cm³ So N4/3πR³ = 37.46 cm³

On solving this gives R=2.458 x 10-8 cm

And for NaCl by using the same formula it gives R=2.22 x 10-8 cm

Now the ratio of edge length must be equal to ratio of radii as both belong to same crystal system so KCl/NaCl = 2.458/2.22 = 1.108

A metal has a fcc lattice. The edge length of the unit cell is 404 pm. The density of the metal is 2.72 g cm-3. The molar mass of the metal is (NA Avogadro's constant= 6.02 x 1023 mol-1)

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 9

Given, cell is fcc, So Z =  4
Edge length, a = 404 pm = 4.04 x 10-8 cm
Density of metal, d = 2.72 g cm-3
NA = 6.02 x 1023 mol-1
Molar mass ofg the metal, M =?
We know that

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 10

In a crystalline solid, anions B are arranged in CCP lattice and cations A occupy 50% of the octahedral voids and 50% of the tetrahedral voids. What is the formula of the solid:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 10

No of atoms in a CCP unit cell = similar to FCC = 4

Therefore no of B atoms present = 4

No of A atom = tetrahedral void and octohedral void(4+2) = 6

The formula of the compound  = A3​B2​

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 15

Na crystallizes in fcc lattice having edge length 500 pm. Mass of the Na particle is 4.151 × 10– 23g. The density of the lattice is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 15

Given:
- Na crystallizes in fcc lattice
- Edge length of the lattice = 500 pm
- Mass of the Na particle = 4.151 × 10⁻²³ g
To Find:
The density of the lattice
Formula:
Density (ρ) = Mass (m) / Volume (V)
Explanation:
1. The fcc (face-centered cubic) lattice consists of a unit cell with atoms at each of the eight corners and one atom in the center of each face.
2. The edge length of the fcc unit cell can be calculated using the formula: a = 4r / √2, where "a" is the edge length and "r" is the atomic radius.
3. In the case of Na, the atomic radius is not given directly, but we can calculate it using the edge length.
4. The atomic radius (r) can be calculated as: r = a √2 / 4.
5. Substituting the given edge length (500 pm) into the formula, we can calculate the atomic radius of Na.
6. Once we have the atomic radius, we can calculate the volume of the unit cell using the formula: V = a³.
7. The mass of the Na particle is given as 4.151 × 10⁻²³ g.
8. Now, we can calculate the density of the lattice using the formula: ρ = m / V.
Calculation:
1. Calculate the atomic radius of Na:
r = (500 pm) √2 / 4 = 353.55 pm = 3.5355 Å
2. Calculate the volume of the unit cell:
V = (500 pm)³ = 125 × 10⁶ pm³ = 125 × 10⁻²⁴ cm³
3. Calculate the density of the lattice:
ρ = (4.151 × 10⁻²³ g) / (125 × 10⁻²⁴ cm³) = 33.208 g/cm³ ≈ 33.2 g/cm³
Conclusion:
The density of the Na lattice is approximately 33.2 g/cm³.

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 17

Schottky defect generally appears in:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 17

Schottky defect is a type of point defect in a crystal lattice named after Walter H. Schottky. In non-ionic crystals it means a lattice valency defect. In ionic crystals, this point defect forms when oppositely charged ions leave their lattice sites, creating vacancies.

Na2SeO4 and Na2SO4 show:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 18

 Na2SO4 and Na2SeO4 are different substances possessing similar formula, they are called isomorphous systems.

Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 19

The melting point of RbBr is 682°C, while that of NaF is 988°C. The principal reason that melting point of NaF is much higher than that of RbBr is that:

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid State - 1 - Question 19

In ionic compounds as internuclear distance incrreases, melting point decreases so as we move down the group, melting point decreases. So, as r+ ra  is greater for RbBr than for NaF so NaF have higher melting point.
