Silicon carbide, SiC, is a very hard, high-melting solid. What kind of crystal forces account for these properties?
MnO has either the NaCI type structure or the CsCI type structure (see Exercise 69). The edge length of the MnO unit cell is 4.47 10-8 cm and the density of MnO is 5.28 g/cm3. a.

The CsCl structure is a simple cubic array of chloride ions with a cesium ion at the center of each cubic array (see Exercise 69). Given that the density of cesium chloride is 3.97 g/cm3, and assuming that the chloride and cesium ions touch along the body diagonal of the cubic unit cell, calculate the distance between the centers of adjacent Cs+ and Cl ions in the solid. Compare this value with the expected distance based on the sizes of the ions. The ionic radius of Cs+ is 169 pm, and the ionic radius of Cl is 181 pm.
