In face-centred cubic (fcc) crystal lattice, edge length is 400 pm. Find the diameter of the greatest sphere which can be fitted into the interstitial void without distortion of the lattice.

Answer»

SOLUTION :For FCC, radius of atom (R)=`a/(2sqrt2)=400/(2sqrt2)` pm =141.4 pm
As octahedral void is bigger in size than the tetrahedral void, the greatest sphere will fit into octahedral voids
Radius of octahedral void (r)=0.414 R=0.414 X 141.4 pm = 58.54 pm
`therefore` Diameter of the greatest sphere FITTING into the void =2 x 58.54 pm =117.08 pm

In evacuated closed vessel the total pressure is P bar at equilibrium. Write equilibrium constant K_p of the following reaction. Reaction : NH_4HS_((s)) hArr NH_(3(g)) + H_2S_((g))

Answer»

Solution :`{:("REACTION:", NH_4HS_((s)) hArr , NH_(3(g))+ , H_2S_((g))), ("Initial concentration:",,Zero,Zero),("Partial pressure at EQUILIBRIUM:",,p_(NH_3),p_(H_2S)):}`
TOTAL pressure at equilibrium = P bar, So,
`THEREFORE p_(NH_3)=P/2 = p_(H_2S)`
So, `K_p=(p_(NH_3))(p_(H_2S))`
`therefore K_p=(P/2)(P/2)=P^2/4`
`therefore P^2=4K_p` and `P=2sqrt(K_p)`
