The density of chromium metal is 7.2 g `cm^(-3)`. If the unit cell has edge length of 289 pm, determine the type of unit cell. Also, calculate the radius of an atom of chromium. (Atomic mass of chromium = 52 a.m.u.)

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - Density of chromium (D) = 7.2 g/cm³ - Edge length of the unit cell (a) = 289 pm = 289 x 10⁻¹² m = 289 x 10⁻¹⁰ cm - Atomic mass of chromium (M) = 52 g/mol - Avogadro's number (Nₐ) = 6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mol ...
