To calculate Avogadro's number using the given data, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Crystal Structure of NaCl NaCl crystallizes in a face-centered cubic (FCC) structure. In this structure: - Each unit cell contains 4 NaCl formula units. - Na+ ions occupy the octahedral voids, while Cl- ions are located at the corners and face centers of the unit cell. ### Step 2: Calculate the Edge Length (a) of the Unit Cell ...
