solid state problems

01. - Chromium has mono atomic body-centred cubic structure. Its cell edge is 300 pm, what is its density? (Molar mass of Cr = 52 g mol - 1 , Avogadro number N = 6.023 x 10 2 3 mol..

A solid possesses a definite size (volume) and a definite shape under ordinary conditions; and tends to maintain these even under deforming conditions. The substances in solids are closely packed and bound by strong inter particle attraction, making them rigid and geometrical. ..

In solids, atoms or molecules are closely packed and the intermolecular space or void is minimum. The average distance between particles is of the order 10 -8 cm; consequently, solids are almost incompressible. In addition, the intermolecular attraction in solids is qu..

Solids are substances having definite volume and definite shape. In terms of kinetic molecular model, in solids there is a regular order in the arrangement of the constituting particles (atoms, molecules or ions) i.e. the particles constituting the solids occupy ..

Conclusion - Anything that we look around us has mass and occupies space. Most of the things we use are in solid state. Solids have always attracted considerable interest because of their symmetry, beauty and simplicity of fo..

The cells discussed above use a liquid electrolyte, one cathode and an anode. Some of the major disadvantages of these cells are leakage on long term storage, corrosion due to the use of liquid acidic/alkaline solution, short life, low weightage per kg mass of the cell and limit on miniaturization...

Introduction - A solid is that form of matter that possesses rigidity and hence possesses a definite shape and a definite volume. There are two types of solids..

Depending on the conditions for freezing of water, the solid form of water i.e., ice, can exist in different crystalline forms. In 'normal' hexagonal ice, four other oxygen atoms tetrahedrally surround each oxygen atom. One hydrogen atom lies in between each pair of oxygen atoms. Thus, e..

State of the System and State Functions - State of the system implies the conditions of its existence. In order to understand it, let H 2 O be considered as a chemical system. H 2 O can exist in three physical states; ice, water and steam depending upon the c..

The States of Matter - Matter occurs in four states: Solid, Liquid, Gas and Plas..
