Stronium metal is found to have a face centered cubic crystal structure. It is measured to have a density of 2.54g/mL. What is the length of the unit cell in pm?
We know that,
d = zM/Naa3
Or
a3 = zM/Nad ............(1)
Where,
a = length of unit cell
Z = atoms contribution per unit cell
For FCC
Z = 4atoms
M = molar mass of element
For strontium
M = 87.62g/mol
Na = Avogadro's constant = 6.022×1023atoms/mol
d = density of element = 2.54g/ml
We know that
1ml = 1cm3
So,
d = 2.54g/cm3
putting the all value in formula
a3 = [(4atoms)(87.62g/mol)]/[(6.022×10-23atoms/mol)(2.54g/cm3)]
a3 = 22.913×10-23cm3
a3 = 229.13×10-24cm3
taking cube root on both side
a = 6.119×10-8cm
(Note:- 1cm = 10-2m = 1010pm)
so,
a = 6.119×10-8×1010pm
a = 611.9pm
hence,
length of unit cell = 611.9pm
