NCERT Solutions class 12 Chemistry The Solid State part 1

1. Define the term ‘amorphous’. Give a few examples of amorphous solids.

2. What makes a glass different from a solid such as quartz? Under what conditions could quartz be converted into glass?

3. Classify the following as amorphous or crystalline solids:

Polyurethane, naphthalene, benzoic acid, teflon, potassium nitrate, cellophane, polyvinyl chloride, fibre glass, copper.

4. (i) What is meant by the term ‘coordination number’?

(ii) What is the coordination number of atoms:

(a) in a cubic close-packed structure?

(b) in a body-centred cubic structure?

5. How can you determine the atomic mass of an unknown metal if you know its density and the dimension of its unit cell? Explain.

6. ‘Stability of a crystal is reflected in the magnitude of its melting point’. Comment. Collect melting points of solid water, ethyl alcohol, diethyl ether and methane from a data book. What can you say about the intermolecular forces between these molecules?

7. How will you distinguish between the following pairs of terms:

(i) Hexagonal close-packing and cubic close-packing?

(ii) Crystal lattice and unit cell?

(iii) Tetrahedral void and octahedral void?

8. How many lattice points are there in one unit cell of each of the following lattice?

(i) Face-centred cubic

(ii) Face-centred tetragonal

(iii) Body-centred

9. Explain

(i) The basis of similarities and differences between metallic and ionic crystals.

(ii) Ionic solids are hard and brittle.

10. Calculate the efficiency of packing in case of a metal crystal for

(i) simple cubic

(ii) body-centred cubic

(iii) face-centred cubic (with the assumptions that atoms are touching each other).

11. Silver crystallizes in fcc lattice. If edge length of the cell is and density is 10.5 g , calculate the atomic mass of silver.

12. A cubic solid is made of two elements P and Q. Atoms of Q are at the corners of the cube and P at the body-centre. What is the formula of the compound? What are the coordination numbers of P and Q?

13. Niobium crystallises in body–centred cubic structure. If density is 8.55 g , calculate atomic radius of niobium using its atomic mass 93 u.
