Analysis shows that nickel oxide has the formula Ni0.98 O1.00. What fractions of nickel exist as Ni2+ and Ni3+ ions?
1.40 It is given that nickel oxide has the formula as Ni0.98 O1.00.
As per the formula, there are 98 Ni ions for 100 oxide ions.
Out of 98 Ni ions, let x ions be in +2 oxidation state
98−x ions will be in +3 oxidation state.
Oxide ion has −2 charge.
To maintain electrical neutrality, total positive charge on cations = total negative charge on anions.
2x+3(98−x)+100(−2)=0
x=94
Fraction of Ni2+ ions = 94/98 = 0.96
Fraction of Ni2+ ions = 98-94/98 = 0.04
Hence, the fractions of nickel that exists as Ni2+ and Ni3+ are 0.

1.41 It is given that nickel oxide has the formula as Ni0.98 O1.00.
As per the formula, there are 98 Ni ions for 100 oxide ions.
Out of 98 Ni ions, let x ions be in +2 oxidation state
98? x ions will be in +3 oxidation state.
Oxide ion has ?2 charge.
To maintain electrical neutrality, total positive charge on cations = total negative charge on anions.
2x+3 (98? x)+100 (?2)=0
x=94
Fraction of Ni2+ ions = 94/98 = 0.96
Fraction of Ni2+ ions = 98-94/98 = 0.04
Hence, the fractions of nickel that exists as Ni2+ and Ni3+ are 0.96 a

1.38 We apply pythagoras theorem AC2= AB2+ BC2
(2R)2= (R+r)2 +(R+r)2 = 2(R+r)2
4R2 = 2(R+r)2
(2R)2= (R+r)2
√2(R)2= √(R+r)2 = √2r = R+r
r = √2 R – R
r = (√2-1) R
r = (1.4114-1)R
r= 0.414 R

1.37 Calculation of edge length of unit cell(a)
Atomic mass of the element (M)= 93g mol−1
Number of particles in bcc type unit cell (Z) = 2
Mass of the unit cell = Z * MNA = 2 * (93 g mol−1) (6.022*1023mol−1)
=30.89*10−23g
Density of unit cell (d) =8.55 g cm−3
Volume of unit cell (a3)=Mass of unit cell
Density of unit cell=(30.89*10−23g)(8.55 g cm−3)
=36.16*10−24cm3
Edge length of unit cell (a) = (36.13*10−24cm3)13
=3.31 * 10−8cm
Step II: Calculation of radius of unit cell (r)
For bcc structure, r=√3a4
=√3*(3.31*10−8cm)4
=1.43*10−8cm

(a) Eutrophication: When the growth of algae increases in the surface of water, dissolved oxygen in water is reduced. This phenomenon is known as eutrophication. (Due to this growth of fish gets inhibited).
(b) Pneumoconiosis: It is a disease which irritates lungs. It causes scarring or fibrosis of the lung.
(c) Photochemical smog: Photochemical smog is formed as a result of the photochemical decomposition of nitrogen dioxide and chemical reactions involving hydrocarbons. It takes place during dry warm season in the presence of sunlight. It is oxidising in nature.
(d) C

1.36 It is given that the atoms of Q are present at the corners of the cube.
Therefore, number of atoms of Q in one unit cell = 8 x 1/8 = 1
It is also given that the atoms of P are present at the body-centre.
Therefore, number of atoms of P in one unit cell = 1
This means that the ratio of the number of P atoms to the number of Q atoms, P:Q = 1:1
Hence, the formula of the compound is PQ.
The coordination number of both P and Q is 8.

1.35 P= density
A= edge length of the cell
NA= Avogadro Number
Z= no. of atoms in F.C.C unit cell
M= mass of the metal
Edge length of the cell = d = 4.07*10-8 cm
Density = P =10.5g/cm3
No. of unit cell of face centered cubic (F.C.C) lattice is 4, Z=4
Avogadro Number (NA) = 6.022*1023
Mass of silver = M=?
