To calculate the density of the unit cell of sodium with a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the number of atoms in the unit cell In a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, there are: - 8 corner atoms, each contributing \( \frac{1}{8} \) of an atom to the unit cell. - 1 atom at the center of the cube. Total number of atoms per unit cell (n): ...
