Calculate the number of unit cells in 0.4 g metal if the product of density and volume of unit cell is \(1.2 \times 10^{-22} \mathrm{~g}\).

  1. A \(1.1 \times 10^{21}\)
  2. B \(2.2 \times 10^{21}\)
  3. C \(3.3 \times 10^{21}\)
  4. D \(4.4 \times 10^{21}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(3.3 \times 10^{21}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

No. of unit cell in \(x \mathrm{~g}\) of metal
\(\begin{aligned}
=\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\rho \mathrm{a}^3} & =\frac{0.4 \mathrm{~g}}{1.2 \times 10^{-22} \mathrm{~g}} \\
& =3.3 \times 10^{21}
\end{aligned}\)
