Metallic Solids |
Held together by a sea of collectively shared electrons |
|
Ionic solids |
Sets of Cations and Anions mutually attracted to one another |
|
Covalent Network Solids |
Joined by an extensive network of covalent bonds |
|
Molecular Soilds |
Discrete molecules held together by weak forces |
|
Polymers |
Long chains of atoms held together by covalent bonds Chains can connect by weak forces |
|
Nanomaterials |
crystalline compounds withthe crystals on the order of 1–100 nm |
|
Crystalline solids |
Regular repeating pattern of atoms |
|
Amorphous |
Classified by a lack of order in the arrangement of atoms |
|
Lattice Points |
Positions that define the overal structure fo the crystalline compound |
|
Lattice vectors |
Connect points and define the unit cells |
|
Primate lattices |
Atoms only in the lattice points (1 atoms) |
|
Face centered lattices |
At corners and one per face (4 atoms total) |
|
Body centered cubic lattice |
Lattice points at corners and in the center (2 atoms) |
|
Motif |
Groups of atoms that define the overall structure |
|
Alloys |
Materials that contain more than one element and have characteristic properties of metals |
|
Substitutional alloys |
Second element takes the place of a metal atom |
|
Interstitial alloys |
Second element fills a space in the lattice of metal atoms |
|
Heterogeneous alloys |
Components not disperse uniformly |
|
N-Type Semiconductors |
More electrons, negative charge travels in the conductance band |
|
P-Type Semiconductors |
Fewer electrons, "hole" travels in the valence band |
|
Polymers |
Molecules of a high molecular weight made by joining smaller molecules (monomers) |
|
Addition Polymers |
Formed when a bond breaks and electrons in the. Pnd make two new bonds |
|
Condensation polymers |
Formed when small molecule is removed between two large molecules |
|
Vulcanization |
Chains are cross-linked by short chains of sulfur atoms, making the rubber stronger |
