Brigg’s Law

  • : spacing between lattice plates
  • : angle of incidence

Arrhenius’ Law

  • is the equilibrium number of vacancies, while is the total number of atomic sites.

Substitutional Alloy Rules

  • Same crystal structure (e.g. FCC, BCC etc.)
  • Similar electronegativity - for partial solubility and for full solubility.
  • A metal prefers to dissolve another metal of the same or higher valency
    • Same valency means any ratio of two can form, otherwise it will be limited
