Given:
The atomic mass of X, M = 40 gm
The given mass of X = 1 gm
It crystallizes in simple cubic pattern.
To Find:
The total no of unit cells in 1 g of X.
Calculation:
- For simple cubic pattern, z = 1
- The volume of 1 g of X = Mass / Density
⇒ The volume of 1 g of X = 1/d
- We know that:
V × NA × d = z × M
⇒ V × 6.022 × 10²³ × d = 1 × 40
⇒ Volume of 1 unit cell = 40 / (6.022 × 10²³ × d)
- No of unit cells = Volume of 1 gm of X / Volume of 1 unit cell
⇒ No of unit cells = (1/d) / {40 / (6.022 × 10²³ × d)}
⇒ No of unit cells = (6.022 × 10²³) / 40 = 0.15055 × 10²³
⇒ No of unit cells = 15.055 × 10²¹
- So, the total no of unit cells in 1 g of X is 15.055 × 10²¹.
