2. ZrC has a rock salt structure (NaCl) which may be considered as two interpenetrating f.c.c. lattices of two types
of atoms. Corners and faces of the unit cell are located by C ions, and Zr ions locate at the edges and inside of the
unit cell. (radius of Zr is 0.23 nm and radius of C is 0.17 nm)
a) Draw ZrC unit cell showing the Zr and C ions and determine number of atoms.
b) The atomic weight of Zr is 91.2 g/mole and that of C is 12 g/mole. Calculate the theorical density of ZrC in
grams/cm3
.
c) Calculate the ionic packing factor of ZrC
