X-ray crystallographic studies show that elemental palladium (Pd) exists in a face-centered cubic (fcc) crystal.  The length of the sides for its crystalline unit cell was found to be 3.8907 Angstroms.  The Mo Ka x-ray radiation used has a wavelength of 0.71354 Angstroms.    

(a)        Calculate the mass density, in grams / cm3, for palladium.  (Hint:  1 Angstrom = 1 x 10-8 cm, 1 amu = 1.661 x 10-24 grams).  

(b)       Calculate the radius and diameter of the palladium atom, in Angstroms.
