NucleationNucleation
• Nucleation is the extremely localized budding of a distinct thermodynamic phase
• Initial formation of bubbles and crystals requires gathering points called nucleation sites
• Imperfections in surfaces of containers, solutes, particles, etc. serve as nucleation sites

SupercoolingSupercooling
-the cooling of a liquid to below its freezing point
-Cooling occurs faster than the liquid can organize into a solid
-possible because of the lack of nucleation sites around which crystals can form

SuperheatingSuperheating• a liquid is heated to a temperature higher than its
boiling point (without boiling)
For boiling to occur, the vapor pressure must exceed the ambient pressure plus a small amount of pressure induced by surface tension
• Once a bubble does begin to grow it expands explosively (called “bumpingbumping”)
• achieved by heating a homogeneous substance in a clean container, free of nucleation sites
• Surface tension suppresses bubble growth & w/o nucleation sites, liquid must be heated to higher temperatures

Types of SolidsTypes of Solids
Amorphous solidsAmorphous solids: does not possess a well-defined arrangement and long-range molecular order
- Glass is an example
A glass is an optically transparent fusion product of inorganic materials that has cooled to a rigid state without crystallizing
Types of SolidsTypes of Solids
Crystalline SolidsCrystalline Solids: atoms, ions, or molecules lie in a highly regular arrangement (a lattice)
-typically have flat well defined surfaces called faces
Quartz (SiO2) can form either type

A crystalline solid possesses rigid and long-range order. In a crystalline solid, atoms, molecules or ions occupy specific (predictable) positions.
A unit cell is the basic repeating structural unit of a crystalline solid.

At lattice points:
• Atoms
• Molecules
• Ions

Number of Atoms Per Unit Cell
1 atom/unit cell
(8 x 1/8 = 1)
2 atoms/unit cell
(8 x 1/8 + 1 = 2)
4 atoms/unit cell
(8 x 1/8 + 6 x 1/2 = 4)

When silver crystallizes, it forms face-centered cubic cells. The unit cell edge length is 409 pm. Calculate the density of silver.

An Arrangement for Obtaining the X-ray Diffraction Pattern of a Crystal

Extra distance = BC + CD = 2d sin = n (Bragg’s Law)
Reflection of X rays from Two Layers of Atoms
23
X rays of wavelength 0.154 nm are diffracted from a crystal at an angle of 14.17o. Assuming that n = 1, what is the distance (in pm) between layers in the crystal?
n = 2d sin n = 1 = 14.17o = 0.154 nm = 154 pm
d =n

Molecular Solids• Lattice points occupied by molecules• Held together by intermolecular forces• Soft, low melting point• Poor conductor of heat and electricity• CO2, H2O, C6H6, C12H22O11

Strong covalent forces within molecules
Weak covalent forces between molecules
Sulfur, SSulfur, S88Phosphorus, PPhosphorus, P44

Ionic Solids
• Lattice points occupied by cations and anions• Held together by electrostatic attraction• Hard, brittle, high melting point• Poor conductor of heat and electricity
CsCl ZnS CaF2

Atomic Solids• Lattice points occupied by atoms• Held together by london dispersion forces• Soft, very low melting point• Poor conductor of heat and electricity• Noble Gases
28
Metallic Solids• Lattice points occupied by metal atoms• Held together by metallic bonds• Soft to hard, low to high melting point• Good conductors of heat and electricity

Network Atomic SolidsNetwork Atomic SolidsSome covalently bonded substances DO NOT form
discrete molecules.
Diamond: hardest mineral, insulator, transparent, best
abrasive
Graphite: softest mineral, good electrical conductor,
great lubricant
1977 DThe state of aggregation of solids can be described as belonging to the following four types:
(1) ionic (3) covalent network(2) metallic (4) molecular
For each of these types of solids, indicate the kinds of particles that occupy the lattice points and identify forces among these particles. How could each type of solid be identified in the laboratory (properties)? Name one example of each solid.
