The number of atoms in \( 2.4 \mathrm{~g} \) of body centred cubic crystal with edge length \( 200 \mathrm{pm} \) is (density
\( =10 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~cm}^{-3}, \mathrm{NA}=6 \times 10^{23} \) atoms \( / \mathrm{mol} \) )

  1. A \( 6 \times 10^{23} \)
  2. B \( 6 \times 10^{19} \)
  3. C \( 6 \times 10^{22} \)
  4. D \( 6 \times 10^{20} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( 6 \times 10^{22} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(d=\frac{Z M}{a^{3} N_{A}}\)
\(M=\frac{d \times a^{3} \times N_{A}}{Z}=\frac{10 \times(200)^{3} \times 10^{-30} \times 6 \times 10^{23}}{2}=24\)
\(24 \mathrm{~g}\) contains \(6 \times 10^{23}\)
\(2.4 \mathrm{~g}\) contains?
\(6 \times 10^{22}\)
