How can you determine the atoic mass of an unknown metal if you know its density and the dimension of its unit cell ? Explain.

Define the term density. Give its units and dimensions.

Explain how a vector can be resolved into its rectangular components in three dimensions.

How can you determine that a dividing cell you are seeing under a microscope is of an aniaml or a plant?

Density of a unit cell is same as the density of the substance. If the density of the substance is known, number of atoms or dimensions of the unit cell can be calculated . The density of the unit cell is related to its mass(M), no. of atoms per unit cell (Z), edge length (a in cm) and Avogadro number N_A as : rho = (Z xx M)/(a^3 xx N_A) A metal X (at. mass = 60) has a body centred cubic crystal structure. The density of the metal is 4.2 g cm^(-3) . The volume of unit cell is
