Based on the diagram shown in the attached file

R = Radius of the sphere  

a = Lattice constant

Using pythagoras theorem for the right angled triangle in figure 2

(4R)^2 = a^2 + a^2

16(R^2) = 2(a)^2

Solving the above equation

a=2R√2

To prove that the Atomic Packing factor is 0.74

Let the volume of atom in a unit cell be Vs

Total unit cell volume, Vc  

Vc = a^3

Vc =(2R√2)^3

Vc=16R^3 √2  =22.63R^3

Since there are 4 atoms in the FCC unit cell

Vs=4*(4/3 πR^3)

Vs=5.33 πR^3

APF=(5.33 πR^3)/(22.63R^3 )

APF=0.74

Answer:
             20 L of Cl₂

Solution:

The reaction is as follow,

                                   H₂C₂  +  2 Cl₂     →      H₂C₂Cl₄

According to equation,

       167.84 g (1 mole) H₂C₂Cl₄ is produced by  =  44.8 L (2 mole) of Cl₂
So,
                 75 g of H₂C₂Cl₄ will be produced by  =  X L of Cl₂

Solving for X,
                      X  =  (44.8 L × 75 g) ÷ 167.84 g

                      X  =  20 L of Cl₂

Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. it is often called the
Tema [17]

Water is often referred as a <span>universal solvent </span>because it is capable dissolving much more solutes as compared to any other solvent.  This is because, water is a high polar molecule. In water, H has partial positive charge while O has partial negative charge. 


Due to this, water favors dissociation of molecules into positively and negatively charged ions. Positively charge ions gets attracted  towards oxygen i.e. negatively charges, while negatively charged ions get attracted towards positive end of water molecule. 


However, it is worth nothing that, despite water being referred as universal solvent, many compounds are insoluble or partially soluble in water. For instance, most of the hydroxide displays poor solubility in water.
