Solid Lattices Mindmap

1. Metallic lattices

   • High melting and boiling points
   • Good thermal and electrical conductivity
   • Malleable and ductile

2. Ionic Lattices

   • Fairly high melting temperatures
   • Conducts electricity when molten but not when solid
   • Soluble in water
   • Brittle

3. Covalent Lattices

   • Graphite
     • Sheets of interlocking hexagonal carbon rings
   • Diamond
     • Giant three dimensional tetrahedral arrangement of carbon
   • Graphene
     • One atom layer thick sheet of graphite

4. Molecular lattices

   • Examples: Iodine, white phosphorus
   • Relatively low melting and boiling points
