• The potential energy between Mg2+ and O2- ions in a MgO crystal can be estimated as
• where A = 1.61 x 10-27 J m, B = 3.87×10-96 J m8, r is the separation (between ion centers) in m, and E is the potential energy in J.
• Calculate the equilibrium separation between the ion centers. • Calculate the bonding energy between the Mg and O ions at this equilibrium distance. • If the ionic radius of Mg2+ is 0.072 nm, what is the ionic radius of O2- ? Example 2-solution Ionic. Bonding (example NaCl)
Bonding is described as electrostatic attraction between point charges.

• What are crystals • Crystal systems • Crystal structure in metals (with a focus on cubic systems) Why study crystal structure?
Many properties of materials are directly related to their crystallinty and crystal structure

Non-crystalline Classification of solids by atomic arrangement
" Has a well-defined ordered structure in 3D (over large range). Atoms self-organize in a periodic Dense, array. ORDERED packing " Well defined shaped due to well- ordered par cles. • metals • many ceramics • some polymers
" Has a disordered structure, lacking a systema c atomic arrangement.
" Poorly defined shapes because they don’t have extensive ordering of Non dense, par cles. RANDOM packing • complex structures • rapid cooling Some crystals (well-defined ordered structure; well-defined shape)

A unit cell is the most basic and least volume consuming repea ng structure of any solid. Unit cell: where atoms sit: Bravais Lattices Let us look at “cubic” crystal structure
Note: for metals, all atoms are iden cal; the FCC and BCC atoms are shaded 1 differently only for ease of viewing.
½
¼ An ion in the body of a cell belongs en rely to that cell and counts as 1. An ion on a face is shared by two cells and contributes ½. An ion on an edge is shared by four cells and hence contributes ¼. ⅛ An ion at a vertex is shared by eight cells, and so contributes ⅛. Crystal structure in metals Metallic bonds (such as Au, Ag, Cu)
Can be pictured as an array of positive ions in a “sea of electrons".
Cu (FCC)
Tend to be densely packed.
REASONS FOR DENSE PACKING - Typically, only one element is present, so all atomic radii are the same. - Nearest neighbor distances tend to be small in order to lower bond energy. - Electron cloud shields cores from each other. - Metallic bonding is not directional • Have the simplest crystal structures. Lattice points per cell: how many atoms we have in each unit cell
