3. Metal crystal structures consist of lattice patterns that can be broken down to the smallest repetitive volume, known as a unit cell. We have discussed three types of cubic structures, simple cubic (SC), body centered cubic (BCC), and face centered cubic (FCC) structures. Answer the following questions below:  A. (0.5pts) Sketch a SC structure AND a FCC structure B. (1pts) Calculate the number of atoms per cell AND atomic packing factor for SC AND FCC (MUST state/illustrate how to determine parameters for both structures – show work/thought process). C. (0.5pts) For a metal that consists of a FCC structure, describe one plane in detail that is susceptible to slip/deformation. Responses can include sketches if it helps convey your thought process – responses that include a sketch must explain the main concept of why this plane is susceptible to slip/deformation.  

1. Your company standards mandate that the polydispersity index for your new polymer processing procedure yield a polydispersity index of less than or equal to 1.15. Your polymer processing ends with 3 fractions, labeled D, E, & F in the table below with the breakdown of different size chains within your new polymer sample. Does your new fabrication method meet that standard? Show all your work and justify your answer (describe the measurement you are comparing and why).    Fraction MW # of Chains Ni*Mi Ni*Mi^2 D 75 25 1875 140625 E 140 100 14000 1960000 F 250 120 30000 7500000 SUM: 465 245 45875 9600625
