The edge length of NaCl unit cell is 564 pm. What is the density of NaCl in g/`cm^(3)`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the density of NaCl, we will use the formula for density in the context of a crystalline solid: \[ \rho = \frac{Z \cdot M}{N_A \cdot a^3} \] where: - \(\rho\) = density ...
