Crystal Lattices and Unit Cell

Consider a crystal. The regular and repeating pattern of constituent particles is the most distinguishing feature of crystalline solids. A crystal lattice is formed when these particles are replaced with representative points. The three-dimensional arrangement of constituent particles is known as a crystal lattice. Unit cell is that the smallest portion of a space lattice which when repeated in several directions, generate the whole lattice. Unit cell is a building block of a lattice. It is the smallest unit of cell.

In a hydrogen molecule, the two hydrogen atoms are held together by a single bond with a bond energy of 436 kJ/mol of hydrogen. In other words, to break the H-H bonds in one mole of molecular hydrogen requires the expenditure of 436 kJ of energy. Using the balanced chemical equation for the formation of water from oxygen and hydrogen (shown above), and interpreting the stoichiometric coefficients as mole amounts, how much energy must be expended in breaking the H-H bonds? kJ
CH,OH The name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been added to carbon.
