Ferrous oxide has a cubic structure and each edge of the unit cell is5.0Å. Assuming density of the oxide as4.0 g cm-3 then the number ofFe2+andO2-ions present in each unit cell will be

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Density is given by

ρ= Z×M N A × ( a ) 3

Density = 4  g/cm 3 (given)

∴ 4 = 7 2 × Z 6 × 10 2 3 × 5 × 1 0 - 8 3

= 7 2 × Z 6 × 10 2 3 × 1 0 - 2 4 × 1 2 5

∴Z=4
