, 2 THE NATURE OF MATERIALS zl zl zl




Review Questions
zl




2.1 The elements listed in the Periodic Table can be divided into three categories. What are these c
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl z l zl zl zl



ategories and give an example of each? zl zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. The three types of elements are metals (e.g., aluminum), nonmetals (e.g., oxygen), and semimet
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



als (e.g., silicon).
zl zl




2.2 Which elements are the noble metals? zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. The noble metals are copper, silver, and gold. zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




2.3 What is the difference between primary and secondary bonding in the structure of materials?
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. Primary bonding is strong bonding between atoms in a material, for example to form a molec
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



ule; while secondary bonding is not as strong and is associated with attraction between molecules in t
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



he material.
zl




2.4 Describe how ionic bonding works? zl zl zl zl




Answer. In ionic bonding, atoms of one element give up their outer electron(s) to the atoms of another
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



element to form complete outer shells. zl zl zl zl zl




2.5 What is the difference between crystalline and noncrystalline structures in materials?
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. The atoms in a crystalline structure are located at regular and repeating lattice positions in th
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



ree dimensions; thus, the crystal structure possesses a long-
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



range order which allows a high packing density. The atoms in a noncrystalline structure are randomly
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl z l zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



positioned in the material, not possessing any repeating, regular pattern. zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




2.6 What are some common point defects in a crystal lattice structure?
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. Some of the common point defects are: (1) vacancy - zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



a missing atom in the lattice structure; (2) ion-pair vacancy (Schottky defect) -
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



a missing pair of ions of opposite charge in a compound; (3) interstitialcy -
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



a distortion in the lattice caused by an extra atom present; and (4) Frenkel defect -
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



an ion is removed from a regular position in the lattice and inserted into an interstitial position not nor
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



mally occupied by such an ion. zl zl zl zl zl




2.7 Define the difference between elastic and plastic deformation in terms of the effect on the crystal la
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



ttice structure. zl




Answer. Elastic deformation involves a temporary distortion of the lattice structure that is proportion
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



al to the applied stress. Plastic deformation involves a stress of sufficient magnitude to cause a perm
zl zl zl zl z l zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



anent shift in the relative positions of adjacent atoms in the lattice. Plastic deformation generally invol
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl z l zl zl zl



ves the mechanism of slip - relative movement of atoms on opposite sides of a plane in the lattice.
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




2.8 How do grain boundaries contribute to the strain hardening phenomenon in metals?
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




Answer. Grain boundaries block the continued movement of dislocations in the metal during strainin
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



g. As more dislocations become blocked, the metal becomes more difficult to deform; in effect it beco
z l zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl



mes stronger. zl




2.9 Identify some materials that have a crystalline structure.zl zl zl zl zl zl zl
