Solutions

Expert Solution

For BCC :
a* sqrt(3) = 4*r
a = 4*126/sqrt(3)
   = 291 pm
   = 2.91*10^-10 m

For FCC :
a* sqrt(2) = 4*r
a = 4*126/sqrt(2)
   = 356.4 pm
   = 3.564*10^-10 m

BCC lattice structure on (010) :
Number of atom : 4*1/4 = 1 atom
Area = a^2 = (2.91*10^-10)^2 = 8.47*10^-20 m^2
Planar density = number of atom / Area
                              = 1/8.47*10^-20
                              =1.18*10^19 atom/m^2

FCC lattice structure on (010) :
Number of atom : 4*1/4 + 1/2*1= 1.5 atom
Area = a^2 = (3.564*10^-10)^2 = 1.27*10^-19 m^2
Planar density = number of atom / Area
                              = 1.5/1.27*10^-19
                              =1.18*10^19 atom/m^2

BCC lattice structure on (101) :
Number of atom : 4*1/4 + 1= 2 atom
Area = a*a*sqrt(2) =1.4142* (2.91*10^-10)^2 = 1.20*10^-19 m^2
Planar density = number of atom / Area
                              = 2/1.20*10^-19
                              =1.67*10^19 atom/m^2

FCC lattice structure on (101) :
Number of atom : 4*1/4 + 2*1/2= 2 atom
Area = a*a*sqrt(2) =1.4142* (2.91*10^-10)^2 = 1.20*10^-19 m^2
Planar density = number of atom / Area
                              = 2/1.20*10^-19
                              =1.67*10^19 atom/m^2
