4.2 Metalic Oxides 2
RC/RA =
0.100/0.133 =
= 0.75
Therefore C.N. = 8
That is, we
need twice as
many F- as
Ca2+ ions
Fluorite Structure
We need in
the unit cell
the same
number of +
and –
charges.
That is, we

Out class problem
•a) calculate the atomic packing factor of fluorite
- 1 x 1 Ti cation (4+)
Titanium
Calcium
R(O=) = 0.14 nm
R(Ca2+) = 0.10 nm
R(Ti4+) = 0.068 nm a = 2 R(O=) + 2 R(Ti4+)
a = 0.28 + 0.136 = 0.416 nm
