29. The electronegativity of Sn (1.96) is much larger than that of Ti (1.54), which is in turn larger than those of Hf (1.3) and Zr (1.33).

33. While x is sensitive to disorder, some properties such as lattice parameter are not and comparisons between theory and experiment are still meaningful in such cases.
