Abstract

Structures of crystalline solids are generally determined by the sizes of ions, charges, and energy. Common crystal structures include the sodium chloride, cesium chloride, rutile, wurtzite, and zinc blende types. Solubility of ionic compounds depends on the lattice energy of the solid and solvation energies of the ions. Structures of metals are based on closest packing models for spheres. Several types of defects in solid structures are discussed.
