ATOMIC ARRANGEMENT
1. How many lattice points are unique to the base-centered orthorhombic unit
cell?
4. A material has a cubic unit cell with one atom per lattice point.
If a 0 = 4.0786 A and r = 1. 442 A. determine the crystal structure.
For simple cubic, a
0
= 2r = 2.884 ~ 4.0786
For BCC, a
0
4r/V3 = 3.33 ~ 4.0786
For FCC, a
0
= 4r/Y2 = 4.079 9! 4.0786 Material is FCC!
5. A material has a cubic unit cell with one atom per lattice point. If
a = 5.025 Aand r = 2.176 A, determine the crystal structure.

7. The density of lead is 11.36 Mg/m3 , its atomic mass is 207.19 g/mol and
the crystal structure is FCC. Calculate (a) the lattice parameter and
(b) the atomic radius for lead.
(a) Because lead is FCC, there are 4 atoms/unit cell and we can
calculate the lattice parameter from the density equation

8. The density of tantalum is 16.6 Mg/m3 , its atomic mass is 180.95 g/mol
and the crystal structure is BCC. Calculate (a) the lattice parameter
and (b) the atomic radius for tantalum.
