AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Volume of the Unit Cell The volume \( V \) of a cubic unit cell can be calculated using the formula: \[ V = a^3 \] where \( a \) is the edge length of the unit cell. Given that \( a = 408 \) pm, we first convert this to centimeters: ...
