The edge length of the unit cell at the given atomic mass and density of the molybdenum is 314.2 pm.

<h3>What is  cubic unit cell?</h3>

The cubic unit cell is the smallest repeating unit when all angles are 90 degrees and all lengths are equal.

<h3>Volume of molybdenum</h3>

The volume of the molybdenum is calculated from mass and density of the molybdenum as shown below;

V = (zm/ρN)

where;

  • z is 2 for cubic unit cell
  • m is mass of the molybdenum
  • ρ is density of the molybdenum

V = (2 x 95.96) / (10.28 x 6.02 x 10²³)

V = 3.10 x 10⁻²³ cm³

<h3>Edge length of the unit cell</h3>

a³ = V

a = (V)^¹/₃

a = ( 3.10 x 10⁻²³)^¹/₃

a = 3.142 x 10⁻⁸ cm

a = 3.142 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

a = 314.2 x 10⁻¹² m

a = 314.2 pm

Thus, the edge length of the unit cell at the given atomic mass and density of the molybdenum is 314.2 pm.

Trans fats: Think about how the prefix trans- is used in naming alkenes.
wel
In an alkene, cis and trans isomers are possible because the double band is rigid, cannot rotate, has groups attached to the carbons of the double bond that are fixed relative to each other, and only occurs with double bonds-possibility that molecule will have different geometries; two different molecules with slightly different properties. 
-Trans-2 ends of chain across the double bond.
While naming Cis-Trans isomers the prefix cis or trans are placed in front of the alkene name when there are cis-trans isomers.

Why couple use a method of birth control
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

because it will control the birth of a child which can happen alot being overpopulated in the country or world.
