Atomic Distributions in Liquid Elements
TLDR
In this article, the effect of temperature change on diffraction patterns of liquid chlorine, tin, indium, zinc, cadmium, aluminum, and lithium was analyzed using Mo Kα radiation and the Fourier analysis of these patterns led to the determination of atomic distribution curves for each element.Abstract:
Monochromatic x‐ray diffraction patterns of liquid chlorine, tin, indium, zinc, cadmium, aluminum, and lithium were obtained, using Mo Kα radiation. The effect of temperature change on the patterns was determined for tin and indium. Fourier analyses of these patterns led to the determination of atomic distribution curves for each element. Each atom in liquid chlorine has one nearest neighbor, which means that chlorine is diatomic in the liquid state. The distribution curves for liquid tin, zinc and aluminum agree very well with the distributions in the corresponding crystals. The distribution curves for indium, cadmium, and lithium do not agree very well with distributions in the corresponding crystals.read more
