will occupy the latice points that define the face centered cubic unit cell, with the zinc ions occupying the tetrahedral holes. Since there are four sulfide ions (FCC), we need only four zinc ions to ...
The crystal lattice parameter is 0.563 nm. The diagram shows both a unit cell with ion locations indicated (a) and a space filling model (b) of ionic hard spheres. The cohesive energy of NaCl is - ...
