The correct Answer is:
To find the density of metallic gold with 0.2% Schottky defects, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the number of effective atoms per unit cell (Z) Gold crystallizes in a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice. In an ideal FCC unit cell, the number of atoms (Z) is calculated as follows: - There are 8 corner atoms, each contributing \( \frac{1}{8} \) to the unit cell. - There are 6 face-centered atoms, each contributing \( \frac{1}{2} \) to the unit cell. So, the total number of atoms in an ideal FCC unit cell is: \[ Z = 8 \times \frac{1}{8} + 6 \times \frac{1}{2} = 1 + 3 = 4 \] However, since there is a 0.2% Schottky defect, we need to adjust this number: \[ \text{Effective Z} = Z - (0.2\% \text{ of } Z) = 4 - (0.002 \times 4) = 4 - 0.008 = 3.992 \] ### Step 2: Convert the edge length from picometers to centimeters The edge length \( a \) is given as 407 pm. We need to convert this to centimeters: \[ a = 407 \text{ pm} = 407 \times 10^{-12} \text{ m} = 407 \times 10^{-10} \text{ cm} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the volume of the unit cell The volume \( V \) of the cubic unit cell is given by: \[ V = a^3 = (407 \times 10^{-10} \text{ cm})^3 \] Calculating this gives: \[ V = 6.77 \times 10^{-29} \text{ cm}^3 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the mass of the unit cell The mass \( m \) of the unit cell can be calculated using the formula: \[ m = Z \times \text{Atomic mass of gold} = 3.992 \times 197 \text{ g/mol} \] Calculating this gives: \[ m = 787.064 \text{ g/mol} \] ### Step 5: Convert the mass to grams per unit cell To convert this mass to grams per unit cell, we use Avogadro's number \( N_A \): \[ \text{Mass per unit cell} = \frac{m}{N_A} = \frac{787.064 \text{ g/mol}}{6.022 \times 10^{23} \text{ mol}^{-1}} = 1.308 \times 10^{-22} \text{ g} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the density Finally, we can calculate the density \( \rho \) using the formula: \[ \rho = \frac{\text{Mass per unit cell}}{\text{Volume of unit cell}} = \frac{1.308 \times 10^{-22} \text{ g}}{6.77 \times 10^{-29} \text{ cm}^3} \] Calculating this gives: \[ \rho \approx 19.34 \text{ g/cm}^3 \] ### Final Answer The density of metallic gold with 0.2% Schottky defects is approximately \( 19.34 \text{ g/cm}^3 \). ---
