A metal of density7.5×103kgm-3has an fcc crystal structure with lattice parameter a = 400 pm. Calculate the number of unit cells present in 0.015 kg of the metal.

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

V1=a3=(400×10-12m)3=64×10-30m3
V2=massdensity=0.015kg7.5×10-3m-3
=2×10-6m3
whereV1is the volume of the unit cell andV2that of the metal sample.
So number of unit cell=TotalvolumeVolumeofunitcell=2×10-6m364×10-30m3
=3.125×1022
