The structures of another class of ceramic, high-temperature superconductors are shown in the following figure on the next page. a. Determine the formula of each of these four superconductors. b. One of the structural features that appears to be essential for high-temperature superconductivity is the presence of planar sheets of copper and oxygen atoms. As the number of sheets in each unit cell increases, the temperature for the onset of superconductivity increases. Order the four structures from lowest to the highest superconducting temperature. c. Assign oxidation states to Cu in each structure assuming Tl exists as Tl31. The oxidation states of Ca, Ba, and O are assumed to be 12, 12, and 22, respectively. d. It also appears that copper must display a mixture of oxidation states for a material to exhibit superconductivity. Explain how this occurs in these materials as well as in the superconductor in Exercise 87.

General Zod has sold Lex Luthor what Zod claims to be a new copper-colored form of kryptonite, the only substance that can harm Superman. Lex, not believing in honor among thieves, decided to carry out some tests on the supposed kryptonite. From previous tests, Lex knew that kryptonite is a metal having a specific heat capacity of 0.082 J/g ? 8C and a density of 9.2 g/cm3 . Lex Luthors first experiment was an attempt to find the specific heat capacity of kryptonite. He dropped a 10 g 6 3 g sample of the metal into a boiling water bath at a temperature of 100.08C 6 0.28C. He waited until the metal had reached the bath temperature and then quickly transferred it to 100 g 6 3 g of water that was contained in a calorimeter at an initial temperature of 25.08C 6 0.28C. The final temperature of the metal and water was 25.28C. Based on these results, is it possible to distinguish between copper and kryptonite? Explain. When Lex found that his results from the first experiment were inconclusive, he decided to determine the density of the sample. He managed to steal a better balance and determined the mass of another portion of the purported kryptonite to be 4 g 6 1 g. He dropped this sample into water contained in a 25-mL graduated cylinder and found that it displaced a volume of 0.42 mL 6 0.02 mL. Is the metal copper or kryptonite? Explain. Lex was finally forced to determine the crystal structure of the metal General Zod had given him. He found that the cubic unit cell contained four atoms and had an edge length of 600. pm. Explain how this information enabled Lex to identify the metal as copper or kryptonite. Will Lex be going after Superman with the kryptonite or seeking revenge on General Zod? What improvements could he have made in his experimental techniques to avoid performing the crystal structure determination?
