The structure of graphite is given in Figure 12.19. (a) What type of intermolecular forces exist between the layers of six-member carbon rings? (b) Account for the lubricating ability of graphite. That is, why does graphite feel slippery? Why does pencil lead (which is really graphite in day) leave black marks on paper?
A compound of cadmium, tin, and phosphorus is used in the fabrication of some semiconductors. It crystallizes with cadmium occupying one-fourth of the tetrahedral holes and tin occupying one-fourth of the tetrahedral holes in a closest packed array of phosphide ions. What is the formula of the compound? Explain your answer.

Thallium(I) iodide crystallizes with the same structure a CsCl. The edge length of the Unit cell of TlI is 4.20. Calculate the ionic radius of TI+. (The ionic radius of I is 2.16 .)
Materials containing the elements Y, Ba, Cu, and O that are superconductors (electrical resistance equals zero) at temperatures above that of liquid nitrogen were recently discovered. The structures of these materials are based on the perovskite structure. Were they to have the ideal perovskite structure, the superconductor would have the structure shown in pant (a) of the following figure. a. What is the formula of this ideal perovskite material? b. How is this structure related to the perovskite structure shown in Exercise 85? These materials, however, do not act as superconductors unless they are deficient in oxygen. The structure of the actual superconducting phase appears to be that shown in pan (b) of the figure. c. What is the formula of this material?
