Question : 32
Total: 55
An element with density 6 g cm − 3 forms a fcc lattice with edge length of 4 × 10 − 8 cm . The molar mass of the element is ( N A = 6 × 10 23 mol − 1 )
Solution:
Number of atoms per unit cell of FCC = 4
Z = 4
We have given -
d = 6 g ∕ cm 3 ,
a = edge length = 4 × 10 − 8 cm
N A = 6 × 10 23
d =
M = molar mass of element.
∴ 6 g ∕ cm 3 =
⇒ 6 × ( 64 × 10 − 24 ) × 6 × 10 23 = 4 M
⇒ M =
g ∕ mol 2
∴ M = 57.6 g ∕ mol 2
We have given -
