The 14 Bravais lattices organized into 7 crystal systems (simple or primitive = P, body-centered = I, face-centered = F, end-centered = C, rhombohedral = R). The hexagonal unit cell is inscribed in a larger geometric entity in order to emphasize the bond angles. [E. Generalic, http //w ww. peri od n i. com, modified with permission.]...

Dislocation theory as a portion of the subject of solid-state physics is somewhat beyond the scope of this book, but it is desirable to examine the subject briefly in terms of its implications in surface chemistry. Perhaps the most elementary type of defect is that of an extra or interstitial atom—Frenkel defect [110]—or a missing atom or vacancy—Schottky defect [111]. Such point defects play an important role in the treatment of diffusion and electrical conductivities in solids and the solubility of a salt in the host lattice of another or different valence type [112]. Point defects have a thermodynamic basis for their existence in terms of the energy and entropy of their formation, the situation is similar to the formation of isolated holes and erratic atoms on a surface. Dislocations, on the other hand, may be viewed as an organized concentration of point defects they are lattice defects and play an important role in the mechanism of the plastic deformation of solids. Lattice defects or dislocations are not thermodynamic in the sense of the point defects their formation is intimately connected with the mechanism of nucleation and crystal growth (see Section IX-4), and they constitute an important source of surface imperfection. 

Zincill) chloride. ZnCl2, is the only important halide—it is prepared by standard methods, but cannot be obtained directly by heating the hydrated salt. It has a crystal lattice in which each zinc is surrounded tetrahedrally by four chloride ions, but the low melting point and solubility in organic solvents indicate some covalent... 

A crystal is a solid with a periodic lattice of microscopic components. This arrangement of atoms is determined primarily by X-ray structure analysis. The smallest unit, called the unit cell, defines the complete crystal, including its symmetry. Characteristic crystallographic 3D structures are available in the fields of inorganic, organic, and organometallic compounds, macromolecules, such as proteins and nucleic adds. 

An additional effect of the use of an organic medium in the catalyst preparation is creation of mote defects in the crystalline lattice when compared to a catalyst made by the aqueous route (123). These defects persist in the active phase and are thought to result in creation of strong Lewis acid sites on the surface of the catalysts (123,127). These sites ate viewed as being responsible for the activation of butane on the catalyst surface by means of abstraction of a hydrogen atom. 

Titanium Tetraiodide. Titanium tetraiodide [7720-83 ] forms reddish-brown crystals, cubic at room temperature, having reported lattice parameter of either 1200 (149) or 1221 (150) pm. Til melts at 150°C, boils at 377°C, and has a density of 440(0) kg/m. It forms adducts with a number of donor molecules and undergoes substitution reactions (151). It also hydrolyzes in water and is readily soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. 

The development of apparatus and techniques, such as x-ray diffraction, contributed gready to research on clay minerals. Crystalline clay minerals are identified and classified (36) primarily on the basis of crystal stmcture and the amount and locations of charge (deficit or excess) with respect to the basic lattice. Amorphous (to x-ray) clay minerals are poody organized analogues of crystalline counterparts. 

Morphology. A crystal is highly organized, and constituent units, which can be atoms, molecules, or ions, are positioned in a three-dimensional periodic pattern called a space lattice. A characteristic crystal shape results from the regular internal stmcture of the soHd with crystal surfaces forming parallel to planes formed by the constituent units. The surfaces (faces) of a crystal may exhibit varying degrees of development, with a concomitant variation in macroscopic appearance.
