A compound having bcc geometry has atomic mass 50. Calculate the density of the unit cell if its edge length is 290 pm.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`6.819"g cm"^(-3)`
Density `(rho)=(zxxM)/(a^(3)xxN_(0)xx10^(-30))`
Edge length (a) = 290 pm = 290 , Gram atomic mass (M) = 50 g `mol^(-1)`.
No. of atoms per unit cell (z) = 2 , Avogadro's No. `(N_(0))=6.022xx10^(23)"mol"^(-1)`.
`"Density"(rho)=(2xx("50 g mol"^(-1)))/((290)^(3)xx(6.022xx10^(23)"mol"^(-1))xx(10^(-30)xx"cm"^(3)))=6.819"g cm"^(-3)`
