Calculate the approximate number of unit cells present in 1 g of gold . When gold crystallizes in the fcc lattice (Au=197)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Moles of `Au=(1)/(197)`
Number of atoms of `Au=(6.022xx10^(23))/(197)`
Total number of unit cells `= (6.022xx10^(23))/(197xx4)=7.64xx10^(20)`
