Questions and Problems

2.6 Allowed values for the quantum numbers ofelectrons are as follows:

The relationships between n and the shell designationsare noted in Table 2.1. Relative tothe subshells,

l ＝0 corresponds to an s subshell l ＝1 corresponds to a p subshell l ＝2 corresponds to a d subshell l ＝3 corresponds to an f subshell

For the K shell, the four quantum numbersfor each of the two electrons in the 1s state, inthe order of nlmlms , are 100(1/2 ) and 100(-1/2 ).Write the four quantum numbers for allof the electrons intheLandMshells, and notewhich correspond to the s, p, and d subshells.

5.1 Calculate the fraction of atom sites that are vacant for lead at its melting

temperature of 327_C. Assume an energy for vacancy formation of 0.55 eV/atom.

5.7 If cupric oxide (CuO) is exposed to reducing atmospheres at elevated

(b) How many Cu_ ions are required for the creation of each defect?

5.8 Below, atomic radius, crystal structure, electronegativity, and the most common

valence are tabulated, for several elements; for those that are nonmetals, only atomic radii are indicated.

Which of these elements would you expect to form the following with copper: (a) A substitutional solid solution having complete solubility? (b) A substitutional solid solution of incomplete solubility? (c) An interstitial solid solution?

5.9 For both FCC and BCC crystal structures, there are two different types of

interstitial sites. In each case, one site is larger than the other, which site is

normally occupied by impurity atoms. For FCC, this larger one is located at the center of each edge of the unit cell; it is termed an octahedral interstitial site. On the other hand, with BCC the larger site type is found at 0, __, __ positions—that is, lying on _100_ faces, and situated midway between two unit cell edges on this face and one-quarter of the distance between the other two unit cell edges; it is termed a tetrahedral interstitial site. For both FCC and BCC crystal

structures, compute the radius r of an impurity atom that will just fit into one of these sites in terms of the atomic radius R of the host atom.
