Q12 of 40 Page 1

An element crystallizes in a f.c.c. lattice with cell edge of 250 pm. Calculate the density if 300 g of this element contain atoms.

Given


a = 250 pm = 250 x 10-12 m


z = 4


m = 300g


We know that,



Where M = Molar mass and NA = 6.022 x 1023


Therefore,


Also,



Therefore, the density is 38.4 g/cm3
