What is a nonstoichiometric compound? Give an example, and account for its lack of stoichiometry in terms of structure.

Video transcript

Hello everyone. Today we have the phone problem. A non stoichiometry compound means that the atomic composition cannot be expressed as a ratio of small hole numbers. Its example is titanium hydride 1.7 true or false. So this given example of titanium hydride is a non stoichiometry compound because the ratio of titanium two hydrogen atoms is not a simple whole number. And so this supports the statement's accuracy. Furthermore, titanium hydra is what's known as a metallic hydride. And so what that means is that the hydrogen atoms occupy the holes or the interspecies within the metal lets his structure giving it a unique structure. And so we could conclude that this statement is indeed true. And with that, we have answered the question overall, I hope this helped. And until next time.
