(a) The number of vacancies per cubic centimeter is 1.157 X 10²⁰
(b) ρ = n X (AM) / v X Nₐ
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u />
Given-
Lattice parameter of Li = 3.5089 X 10⁻⁸ cm
1 vacancy per 200 unit cells
Vacancy per cell = 1/200
(a)
Number of vacancies per cubic cm = ?
Vacancies/cm³ = vacancy per cell / (lattice parameter)³
Vacancies/cm³ = 1 / 200 X (3.5089 X 10⁻⁸cm)³
Vacancies/cm³ = 1.157 X 10²⁰
Therefore, the number of vacancies per cubic centimeter is 1.157 X 10²⁰
(b)
Density is represented by ρ
ρ = n X (AM) / v X Nₐ
where,
Nₐ = Avogadro number
AM = atomic mass
n = number of atoms
v = volume of unit cell
