Answer the following questions for both packing diagrams.
1. Find the smallest unit that, if repeated, would give you the entire structure. This is the unit cell. Draw a box on the diagram representing the unit cell.
2. How many total atoms are inside the unit cell? Remember that only fractions of some atoms lie inside the box you drew.
3. Accurately draw boxes exactly 3 atoms wide. How many total atoms are in each? Which displays the greater packing density?

How do you describe salts with more than one atom type? By unit cells and holes
Types of Holes
• What's a tetrahedron• What's an octahedron• Holes: Cubic, tetrahedral, and Octahedral• CCP and holes
Determining the empirical formula from unit cell data:
A salt must be electrically neutral. If you know the charge on the cations and anions, you can determine MxNy.
Alternatively, you can use crystal data to determine the structure of the unit cell and hence the empirical formula. Determine the number of each different ion in the following unit cells. Does it correspond to the formula from charge balance?
1. Copper (I) chloride
2. Barium Chloride
3. Rhenium oxide
4. Based on Cl- alone, what type of unit cell is this? What type of “hole” is occupied by Cu+?
Cu
Cl
5. Based on just Cl- alone, what type of unit cell is NaCl? What type of “hole” is occupied by Na+?
