Crystal structure:
It is a systematic or periodic arrangement of atoms or ions in crystalline material. It is useful to predict properties of material.
Primitive Cubic Unit Cell:
In this unit cell, there are eight atoms those are arranged at the each corner of unit cell.
Face Centered Cubic (FCC):
In this unit cell, six atoms are presented in the center of six faces of unit cell. Another eight atoms are present in each corner of the unit cell.
Density of the unit cell:
n = number of atoms per unit cell.
= density of unit cell.
A = atomic weight.
= volume per unit cell.
= Avogadro’s number.
Pythagoras's theorem:
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
(C)
In the primitive unit cell, the edge length (a) is equal to radius of the atom.
So,
(D)
The atomic weight of gold, A = 196.96654 g/mol.
Total number of atoms present in FCC unit cell = 4
