This practical is intended to help you understand the manner
in which the regular structures of some simple inorganic solids are constructed.
You will have the opportunity of:
- examining typical structures in two and three dimensions
using computer graphics, pre-assembled models and stereo transparencies
- building a series of models from spheres, octahedra and
tetrahedra;
- performing geometric calculations of structural parameters;
- sketching structural fragments;
