Answer:

the free electron density of lithium is 2.3 × 10²⁸ /m³

Explanation:

The Fermi energy is 4.72 eV.

The Fermi energy (highest filled orbital energy ) of free electron is

\varepsilon_f=\frac{h^2}{8m_e} (\frac{3N}{\pi V} )^{2/3}

Rearrange the above equation for free electron density of lithium

\frac{N}{V} = \frac{\pi }{3} (\frac{8m_e \varepsilon_f}{h^2} )^{3/2}

where,

h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴J.s

m_e = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹kg

\varepsilon_f = 4.72eV

= \frac{\pi }{3} (\frac{8(9.11\times10^{-31})(4.72\times1.6\times10^{-19})}{6.626\times10^{-34}} )\\\\= 2.3\times10^{28} /m^3

Thus, the free electron density of lithium is 2.3 × 10²⁸ /m³

Which phrase best describes sir isaac newton's contributions to modern science and therefore to the industrial revolution?
astraxan [27]
Can you please give the phrases? 

But, I'll help what I can.

First, he was the first to discover gravity. He was not bonked by the head by an apple, rather he watched an apple fall from a tree before he decided to explore gravity further. 

He was also the first scientist to be knighted, which is a great honor, as you can expect. 

Newton also developed The Three Laws of Motion. They are extremely important to physics and are considered some of the foundation for physics today. 

He also discovered calculus, which is complex math that is very helpful to scientists today. 

He also discovered the color spectrum using a glass prism, a dark room and window shade with a hole in it. He was able to project the color spectrum onto a piece of paper.

Those are the few I can think of now, but hope it helps!
