How can you determine the atomic mass of an unknown metal if you know its density and the dimensions of its unit cell ? Explain your answer.

Explanation

Atomic mass ofan unknown metal can be determine by applying following formula if we know its mass density and the dimensions of unit cell of its crystal
`M=(d xx a^3xxN)/Z`
Where d = Density of crystal
`N_0` = Avogadros Number
M =Atomic mass of the element
= Edge of unit cell
Z =No.of particles present per unit cell.
