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

Explain how a motorcar engine produces nitrogen oxides
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: combustion causes a chemical reaction between nitrogen and oxygen in the engine.

Explanation:

Nitrogen oxides are produced in combustion processes, partly from nitrogen compounds in the fuel, but mostly by direct combination of atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen in flames. Nitrogen oxides are produced naturally by lightning, and also, to a small extent, by microbial processes in soils.
