One sphere

It is convenient to begin by backtracking to a discussion of AS for an athermal mixture. We shall consider a dilute solution containing N2 solute molecules, each of which has an excluded volume u. The excluded volume of a particle is that volume for which the center of mass of a second particle is excluded from entering. Although we assume no specific geometry for the molecules at this time, Fig. 8.10 shows how the excluded volume is defined for two spheres of radius a. The two spheres are in surface contact when their centers are separated by a distance 2a. The excluded volume for the pair has the volume (4/3)7r(2a), or eight times the volume of one sphere. This volume is indicated by the broken line in Fig. 8.10. Since this volume is associated with the interaction of two spheres, the excluded volume per sphere is... 

In the derivation of both Eqs. (9.4) and (9.9), the disturbance of the flow streamlines is assumed to be produced by a single particle. This is the origin of the limitation to dilute solutions in the Einstein theory, where the net effect of an array of spheres is treated as the sum of the individual nonoverlapping disturbances. When more than one sphere is involved, the same limitation applies to Stokes law also. In both cases contributions from the walls of the container are also assumed to be absent. 

It follows that 3a2 = (4r)1 and therefore that a = 4r/3112. Each unit cell contains one sphere at each of the eight corners and one sphere at the center 8 X 1/8 +1=2 spheres so the total mass of a body-centered cubic unit cell is 2M/NA. Therefore,... 

A four-ounce Alnico permanent magnet was mounted in a brass yoke. Two wedge-shaped pole pieces of soft iron, each with a slot sawed part way through it, were also attached, and the dumbbell assembly was inserted with the ends of the silica fiber in the slots and the spheres of the dumbbell between the pole pieces, one sphere being a little in front and the other a little behind the plane of the pole pieces, as shown in Figure 1. 

The carbon cycle is complicated by several reactions that involve CO2. These reactions transfer carbon between the atmosphere, the hydrosphere (Earth s surface waters), and the lithosphere (Earth s crastal solids). The processes that move carbon from one sphere to another are illustrated schematically in the figure below. 

A second product is the ICE Solid-State Model Kit, developed by L. A. Mayer and G. C. Lisensky, which makes it possible to build extended three-dimensional structures Using a base with holes, templates for some 60 different structures, rods, and four sizes of spheres in radius ratios, common crystal structures can be assembled in a matter of minutes (3). Furthermore, many structures can be assembled from different perspectives by teams of students For example, the cubic NaCl unit cell can be assembled with its orientation on the face of the cube or on the body diagonal. Natural cleavage planes can be found with the kit Lifting one sphere will separate atomic planes from one another. (Contact ICE for ordering information.)...

Not only do double layers interact with double layers, the metal of one sphere also interacts with the metal of the second sphere. There is what is called the van der Waals attraction, which is essentially a dispersion interaction that depends on r-6, and the electron overlap repulsion, which varies as r-12. These interactions between the bulk...

When analogous treatment of AG is included, the two-sphere monopole or one-sphere dipole models predict a significant solvatochromic shift for optical ET of the CR type (i.e., in which the intial state is charge separated) e.g., a blue shift for absorption (e.g., betaine [48]) and a red shift for emission (e.g., coumarin [42]). Similar trends are typically found for CSh using the two-sphere model, while the one-sphere dipolar model is ambiguous, since it does not provide an adequate estimate of the polarity dependence of AG° [29],... 

Spheres which did not fit neatly into the Fe or Si group usually were composed of a mixture of Al, Si, Fe and/or Ti. One sphere (Figure 5c) was identified by its EDXRS and electron diffraction as mullite (3(A1203),2Si02), a high-temperature mineral found in coal fly ash (26,27,28). Fe has been previously identified in mullite coal fly ash (29). The mixed-element sphere in Figure 5d is the largest sphere collected and identified at Whiteface Mountain. 

These two types of interstitial polyhedra are not mutually exclusive i.e., a particular part of volume in the unit cell does not belong to one particular polyhedron. In addition, distorted trigonal-bipyramidal interstitial polyhedra are each formed from two face-sharing tetrahedra. The number of such interstices that corresponds to one sphere is 12. Therefore, each sphere in the bcp structure is associated with three octahedral, six tetrahedral, and twelve trigonal-bipyramidal interstices, i.e., a total of 21 interstices. The size and distribution...

Referring now to the shape of the void as shown in Figure 28, the rhombohedral andletrahedral cells are denoted by the letters R and T. The T-spaces correspond to the voids between four spheres in closest packing with one sphere nested in the hollow formed by the other three. In this space there are six points of contact between spheres and four lines or branches. These branches connect one cell with another. 

Results are shown in Fig. 1. It is observed that the behavior changes sharply at p = 1.0. We may understand why this value is critical as follows If v is considered divisible into a lattice of r cubes of side a, so that v = ra3 and p = n/r, then p = 1 permits one sphere of diameter a to be placed in each of the cubes. 

PROBLEM L2.8 Assuming the worst-case situation, a metallic sphere for which a = 4jra3, and using the center-to-center distance z between spheres as a measure of number density, N is one sphere per cubic volume z3, show that the inequality condition Na<3 becomes 4 ra3 < 3z3.
