What is unit cell ? Write formula to calculate the density of a unit cell.

The formula for determination of density of unit cell is

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) An element crystallizes in a structure having a fcc unit-cell an edge 100 pm. If 24 g of the element contains 24 xx 10^(23) atoms, the density is
