Transition metals empirical formula

Common empirical formulas of transition-metal compounds... 

An empirical relation between band gap and Zunger s orbital electronegativity in s/ -bonded compounds has been determined by Makino (1994a) using a formula derived from the bond orbital model. Based on the bond orbital model and Zunger s orbital electronegativity, new structural maps of AB, AB2 and AB3 compounds between transition metals have been successfully constructed (Makino 1994b). 

Conversely, the presence of some metal ions of lower oxidation state in the metal ion sublattice requires vacant anion sites to balance the charge. In some cases, the charge imbalance is caused by ions of some other element or, rarely, by multiple valence of the anions. In any event, the empirical formula of a recognizable solid transition metal compound may be variable over a certain range, with nonintegral atomic proportions. Such non-stoichiometric compounds may be regarded as providing extreme examples of impurity defects. 

For transition metals, the lanthanides, and the actinides, no such simple rule exists. If we accept the ions charges as chemical facts, we can still write the empirical formulas for ionic compounds so that the net (overall) charge is zero. If we had Fe2+ and O2-, the compound would require a minimum of one of each of the elements for a neutral formula, FeO, whereas Fe3+ and O2- would have the formula Fe2C>3. 

Use of LCAO and plane wave bases does not necessarily make the parts of the text where they arc used independent, since wc continually draw on insight from both outlooks. The most striking case of this is an analysis in Chapter 2 in which the requirement that energy bands be consistent for both bases provides formulae for the interatomic matrix elements used in the LCAO studies of. sp-bonded solids. This remarkable result was obtained only in late 1978 by Sverre Froyen and me, and it provided a theoretical basis for what had been empirical formulae when the text was first drafted. The development came in time to be included as a fundamental part of the exposition it followed on the heels of the much more intricate formulation of the corresponding LCAO matrix elements in transition metals and transition metal compounds, which is described in Chapter 20. 

In the set of main group metal halides, we could readily systematize the solid-state examples according to group number. Since, in general, several oxidation states are observable for each transition metal, it is more convenient to discuss these halides according to their empirical formulas,...

In nontransition metals and alloys the electron mean fi"ee path is usually so large that the standard Boltzmann equation suffices to describe the electrical resistivity. However, both pure transition metals and their alloys and compounds often show a saturation of the resistivity when the mean free path becomes short. A further increase in the lattice disorder through more alloying atoms, more static defects, or larger atomic vibrations caused by increased temperature will not have a significant effect on the total resistivity. The temperature dependence of the resistivity p in such a material approaching resistivity saturation is sometimes well described by the empirical parallel resistor formula due to Wiesmann et al.
