Question:

(a) VO, TiO and NiO all have defect rock salt structures. Explain what this statement means. 

(b) In NiO, the Ni–O internuclear separation is 209 pm. Determine the volume of a unit cell of NiO, and its density, assuming a non-defect structure. Given that the observed density of NiO is 6.67 g cm−3, determine the extent of vacancies in the NiO lattice. Express your answer as a percentage.
