Abstract
: In this paper, a simple thermodynamic model of crystal macroscopic morphology and the cause of the defects were suggested. By virtue of growing alum(K) crystals and measuring their macroscopic parameters in the inorganic laboratory for undergraduates, we can calculate the thermodynamic parameters of alum, thus explaining the macroscopic morphology and defect of alum(K), and predicting the possibility for alum(K) to generate octahedral crystals and its self-normality.
期刊介绍:
University Chemistry is an educational research academic journal supervised by the Ministry of Education and co-sponsored by Peking University and the Chinese Chemical Society. It was founded in 1986 and changed to a monthly publication in January 2016. Its purpose is to promote and deepen the reform of university chemistry education and serve to improve the level of chemistry teaching in my country. The main columns are: Today's Chemistry, Teaching Research and Reform, Knowledge Introduction, Chemical Experiments, Teacher-Student Chats, Future Chemists, etc. The journal has been included in many databases such as China Journal Network Full-text Database, Wanfang Database, Taiwan Huayi Database, Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database (Full-text Edition), and American Chemical Abstracts.
