that led the distance between tetrahedral Fe-O to contract. When the temperature reaches 980K, the researchers could conclude that 980K is the temperature that results in the transition of Iron(III) phosphate from α-FePO4 to β-FePO4. The symmetry structure of Iron(III) phosphate polymorphs is strongly linked to the temperature it is placed in. Prior to the temperature of 980K, we can see that the α-FePO4 state possesses a trigonal unit cell. When the temperature hits 980K, which has been…

but extensively used to highlight structure of many biological specimens such as tissues and cells. Gram staining was developed in Berlin, in 1884, by the Danish scientist Hans Christian Joachim Gram. He studied at the University of Copenhagen where here turned as a Professor of Medicine. Gram staining is based on the ability of the bacteria's cell wall to retain the stain colour. Gram-negative bacteria do not have the ability to keep the stain colour of Crystal Violet and Gram's Iodide when…

Written exercise Paragraph 1 Iron phosphate, FePO4, has a very similar structure as quartz. Quartz has a trigonal lattice structure with space group P3121 (group no. 152). Similarly, at temperature below 980K, iron phosphate exists as α-FePO4, which also exhibits trigonal lattice structure with space group P3121 in which iron, phosphate and oxygen occupy Wyckoff position 3a, 3b and 6c respectively. In quartz, every silicon atom is connected to four oxygen atoms to form a network of…

visualizing the structure of infinitesimally small objects and how they fit together. Normal object fit together similarly to microscopic atoms and experiment 2 exploits this to help understand structure property relationships. The knowledge gained here directly applies to the world as applications of the materials becomes apparent as the properties are explored. Copper There are a plethora of modern technological uses of copper. It can be used in electrical wiring, building sturdy structures,…

Well-known scientist, John M. Barry, in his book The Great Influenza presents the idea of advancements in scientific research is created by uncertainty yet, creating more uncertainty. He adopts a philosophical tone in order to convey to his readers that uncertainty is a tool used to expand knowledge. Barry utilizes antithetical and analogies in his writing to communicate that idea. Barry begins his writing by juxtaposing the strength and thoughts about certainty with the weakness and fear of…

The family structure of Florence contributes or is the cause of the effects Florence now experiences. According to the case, it is a large family Florence is the third out of nine children who all lived on a farm and grew up in laborious settings. Her family worked from…

Task-5 a) • Metals Metal structure is made up of crystals of metals which are made up of positive metal ions and these ions are surrounded by a sea of delocalized electrons. To separate these substances from this crystal lattice a lot of energy is needed. In between the positive and negative ions is present a strong electrostatic force of attraction. That is the reason why metals have strong melting and boiling points. In order to slide one layer of the metal ions over the other layer very less…

is one of the most powerful tools in human communication and its importance is colossal. In order to better comprehend language and its significance, many experts and linguists are elaborating the matter of this subject. Among those experts, David Crystal takes a special place as one of the foremost linguists in the world on the English language. As a global language, the English language is Crystal’s base for all of his books, lectures and conferences. In them, he discusses many topics,…

Lab 4: Crystal Structure and X-Ray Diffraction of Materials Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to study the relationship between the geometry of a sample and its diffraction patterns through an exploration of reciprocal space. In this experiment, both a single crystal piece of Si with a (004) reflection plane and a Si powder sample are scanned, as well as the peaks the locations of the diffraction peaks on the single crystal. The collected data is then analyzed to determine the…

2. RESEARCH ON THE STRUCTURE OF METALS AND TYPES OF BONDING. What are metals? 24% of our planet’s mass is metal. They are used as mainly because of their properties; metals are strong, ductile, have high melting points and are excellent conductors of electricity. Other properties of metals are given below: • Can be made stronger by alloys and heat treatment. • Easily machined. • Most of them are heavy. • Susceptible to corrosion. Metals can be divided into two; Ferrous and Non-ferrous. Ferrous…
