Answer:

The density of Lithium β is 0.5798 g/cm³

Explanation:

For a face centered cubic (FCC) structure, there are total number of 4 atoms in the unit cell.

we need to calculate the mass of these atoms because density is mass per unit volume.

Atomic mass of Lithium is 6.94 g/mol

Then we calculate the mass of four atoms;

= 4 .atoms*\frac{1.mole}{6.022 X10^{23} .atoms} *\frac{6.94g}{mole} = 4.6097 X10^{-23} g

⇒next, we estimate the volume of the unit cell in cubic centimeter

given the edge length or lattice constant a = 0.43nm

a = 0.43nm = 0.43 X 10⁻⁹ m = 0.43 X 10⁻⁹ X 10² cm = 4.3 X 10⁻⁸cm

Volume of the unit cell = a³ = (4.3 X 10⁻⁸cm)³ = 7.9507 X 10⁻²³ cm³

⇒Finally, we calculate the density of Lithium β

Density = mass/volume

Density = (4.6097 X 10⁻²³ g)/(7.9507 X 10⁻²³ cm³)

Density = 0.5798 g/cm³

Based on the kinetic molecular theory, which of the following statements is correct about the particles in a sample of gas at a
fgiga [73]

Answer:

There is a lot of empty space between them.

Explanation:

The kinetic molecular theory postulates that a substance is made up of tiny particles called molecules. The molecules of a gas are in constant random motion and collide elastically with each other. They also collide with the walls of the container.

The magnitude of intermolecular forces of attraction between gas molecules is very small. Hence gas molecules are largely apart with a lot of empty space between gas molecules.

Question 11 of 25
masha68 [24]

Answer:

a.The waves are absorbed or reflected to capture images

Explanation:

How Things Work: TSA scanners use electromagnetic waves for detection. ... These waves are bounced off the body of the person being scanned to create a three-dimensional image on the computer. The backscatter units instead bounce low-level electromagnetic X-rays off the body to create an image on the computer
