Answer: -

6.26 grams

Explanation: -

Atomic Mass of sodium Na = 23 gram

Mass of Na = 18 g

Atomic mass of oxygen O = 16 gram

Molar mass of O2 = 16 x 2 = 32 gram

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is

4 Na + O2 -- > 2 Na 2 O

From the balanced chemical equation, we see

4 Na requires 1 O2

4 x 23 gram of Na requires 32 gram of O2

18 g of Na gives $\frac{32 g O 2 x 18 g Na}{4 x 23 gram Na}$

= 6.26 grams of O2

For the reaction of formation of Na2O, for 18.0 g of Na, 6.26 grams of O2 are needed for reaction.

The cubic unit cell this metal crystallize as is BCC structure .

The structure of a crystalline solid, whether a metal or not, is best described by considering its simplest repeating unit, which is referred to as its unit cell.

The unit cell consists of lattice points that represent the locations of atoms or ions.

The entire structure then consists of this unit cell repeating in three dimensions

$\rm \rho =\dfrac{nM}{N_{0} a^{3}} \\\\\\\\\rm n =\dfrac{\rho N_{0} a^{3}}{M} \\\\\\\\Assuming\; it \; to \; be \; a\; BCC\; structure \\\\\\ r = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} \times a}{4} \\\\\\Therefore\; a = 3.23 \times 10^{-8}\\\\\\\\\rm n =\dfrac{13.3 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\times 3.23^{3}\times (10^{-8})^{3}}{135} \\\\$
