Perovskite-related SrBiO 3 and Sr 0.4 K 0.6 BiO 3 can both be prepared at high pressure.

Question:

Perovskite-related SrBiO3 and Sr0.4K0.6BiO3 can both be prepared at high pressure. SrBiO3 has two BiO6 octahedral sites, one with bond distances of 2 × 2.281, 2 × 2.317, 2 × 2.321 Å and a second with bond distances of 2 × 2.140, 2 × 2.209, and 2 × 2.123 Å. Sr0.4K0.6BiO3 has a single site with Bi–O distances of 2 × 2.110 and 4 × 2.114 Å. Discuss the origins of these structural differences and predict the differences in low-temperature conductivity you might expect for each material. Calculate the Bi bond valence sum for each site assuming R0Bi–O = 2.094 Å.
