Polyhedra semiregular

It has been noticed by a number of workers that the ligands L in cluster molecules MmL occupy positions which define (to a fair approximation) the vertices of regular and semiregular polyhedra. In... [Pg.253]

The simplest semiregular polyhedra are obtained by symmetrically shav-... [Pg.87]

The prisms and antiprisms are also important polyhedron families. A prism has two congruent and parallel faces and they are joined by a set of parallelograms. An antiprism also has two congruent and parallel faces but they are joined by a set of triangles. An infinite number of prisms and antiprisms exist and a few are shown in Figure 2-62. A prism or an antiprism is semiregular if all its faces are... [Pg.89]
