Notebook Entry 1:
1.Name 3 metals
2. List two things each metal is used for.
3. List a few properties of that metal that make it a good choice for the job.
METALS and ALLOYS
Examples include:
Steel
Aluminum
Cast Iron
Titanium
Copper
Characteristics of Metals
1. Good electrical conductors* Allow electricity to flow through easily
2. Good thermal energy conductor.* Allow heat energy to pass through easily
3. High strength**the resistance to fracture of a material when stressed
4. High stiffness* the material's ability to resist elastic deformation
5. Ductile* have the ability to be drawn into thin, cohesive strands
(wires)6. Malleable
* can be flattened (hammered or rolled) into thin sheets.
Metals continued…..
Alloy – combination of two metals* Usually more desirable characteristics than the parent metals
Downside of metals:1. Usually react with oxygen (oxidizes……rusts)2. Higher densities3. Strength weakened as it is heated.
Where do metals come from?
Native metals – found as pure metals in nature.ex. Gold, Silver, and Copper . (only)
Ore – type of rock that contains important elements like metals.** Must be mined and then have the metal extracted.
Iron Ore
Lead Ore
How to get the metal out of the rock??????
1. Smelting – the use of heat and a chemical reducing agent to decompose the ore and drive off elements as gasses or slag and leaving just the metal behind.
Silicon Smelting…Silicon does not exist on its own in nature. Most of it is bound with oxygen in materials like sand and quartzite and granite rock. The silicon-oxygen bond in quartz is so stable it can only be broken by white heat!
Silicon producers reduce high-grade quartz sand to elemental silicon via a carbo-thermic smelting process:
Bonding
4 types:a. Metallicb. Ionicc. Covalentd. Intermolecular forces
Metallic Bonding:
Metallic bond is the reaction between molecules within metals called alkali reactive force. It involves the sharing of free electrons among a lattice of metal atoms.
Ionic Bonding:
An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions
Giving and taking of electrons……
Covalent Bond:
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding that is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms.
Intermolecular Forces:
Intermolecular forces are the forces of attractions that exist between molecules in a compound

Types of Bonding
Crystalline Structure:
The particular repeating arrangement of atoms ( molecules or ions) throughout a material.
Unit Cell:
The smallest structure that is repeated over and over again in a crystalline material

Types of Amorphous materials:

Unit Cell Definitions
Lattice – the regular repetitive, grid-like pattern of atoms in a material.
Lattice Point - A point at the intersection of two or more grid lines
Coordination Number – the number of atoms touching a particular atom, or the number of nearest neighbors.
Example of LatticesLattice Point
Determining number of atoms in a Unit Cell
The figure at the right shows the face-centered cubic unit cell of a cubic-close packed lattice.How many atoms are contained in a unit cell? Each corner atom is shared with eight adjacent unit cells and so a single unit cell can claim only 1/8 of each of the eight corner atoms. Similarly, each of the six atoms centered on a face is only half-owned by the cell. The grand total is then (8 × 1/8) + (6 × ½) = 4 atoms per unit cell.
Determining number of atoms in a Unit Cell
Corners = 1/8 point
Body Centered = 1 point
Face Centered = ½ point
1
Types of Unit Cells:
Simple Cubic
The simple cubic unit cell is a cube (all sides of the same length and all face perpendicular to each other) with an atom at each corner of the unit cell
# of atoms per cell = 1Coordination number = 6
Ex. Pyrite (Fool’s Gold)
Body Centered Cubic (BCC)
The body-centered cubic unit cell is a cube (all sides of the same length and all face perpendicular to each other) with an atom at each corner of the unit cell and an atom in the center of the unit cell.
# of atoms per cell = 2Coordination number = 8
Face Centered Cubic (FCC)
The face-centered cubic unit cell is a cube (all sides of the same length and all face perpendicular to each other) with an atom at each corner of the unit cell and an atom situated in the middle of each face of the unit cell.
# of atoms per cell = 4Coordination number = 12
Hexagonal Close Packed Structure ( HCP)
The HCP crystal structure is created when atoms of neighboring layers “nest” in the crevices of the layer below them. This nesting creates a crystal that is tightly packed and has few slip planes.
Coordination number = 12Number of atoms = 6
Three spheres are completely contained (100%);two spheres are 50% contained12 spheres are 1/6 contained.

HCP is more tightly packed….more space efficient

Crystal Defects
Materials rarely consist of a single perfect crystal formed of one type of atom. The majority of engineering materials are alloys. An alloy is a mixture of atoms of more than one element. Even ‘pure’ metals are rarely more than 99.9% pure.
2 Types * Point Defects - localized imperfections in crystals * Linear Defects - when a crystal structure contains misaligned planes of atoms
Types of Point Defects
1.Vacancyformed when atoms are missing
from the lattice, leaving a hole
2. Substitutional Impurity
** one of the atoms in the lattice is replaced by an outside element.
***The substitute or impurity atom is often larger than the atoms of the host material. This means there are strains imposed on the lattice.
Point Defects cont..
3. Interstitials
** atoms that are squeezed in between regular lattice sites.
Point Defects cont……..
A. Self-Interstitial – an atom of the same type as the lattice is squeezed in.
B. Interstitial Impurity – a foreign (usually smaller) atom fills in the gaps.

CeramicsA ceramic is an inorganic, nonmetallic prepared by the action of heat and subsequent cooling.
Ceramic materials may have a crystalline or partly crystalline structure, or may be amorphous.
Examples include: brick, glass, tableware, refractories, and abrasives
Properties: 1. Strong 2. Hard 3. Stiff 4. Brittle 5. Poor conductor of heat and electricity
Crystalline - the atoms or molecules are arranged in a regular, periodic manner
Amorphous – no crystalline pattern…. The molecules then have a disordered arrangement
