Q. The number of atoms present in 100 g of a bcc crystal (density=10 g `cm^(-3)`) having cell edge 200 pm is

A

`1xx10^(25)`

B

`1xx10^(24)`

C

`2xx10^(24)`

D

`2xx10^(26)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The density is given by `rho=(zxxM)/(a^(3)xxN_(A))`
Therefore, `12.5=(2xxM)/(200xx200xx200xx10^(-30)xx6.02xx6.02xx10^(23))implies M=30.1g`
Now, 30.1 g contains `6.02xx10^(23)` atoms. So, 100g will contain
`(6.02xx10^(23)xx100)/(30.1)=2xx10^(24)` atoms

Density of a unit cell is the same as the density of the substance. So, if the density of the substance is known, we can calculate the number of atoms or dimensions of the unit cell.
