Nothing in particular determines the name of an element, it could range from who discovered it to where it was discovered!
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>For a:</u> The edge length of the unit cell is 314 pm
<u>For b:</u> The radius of the molybdenum atom is 135.9 pm
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the edge length for given density of metal, we use the equation:

where,
= density = 
Z = number of atom in unit cell = 2 (BCC)
M = atomic mass of metal (molybdenum) = 95.94 g/mol
= Avogadro's number = 
a = edge length of unit cell =?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![10.28=\frac{2\times 95.94}{6.022\times 10^{23}\times (a)^3}\\\\a^3=\frac{2\times 95.94}{6.022\times 10^{23}\times 10.28}=3.099\times 10^{-23}\\\\a=\sqrt[3]{3.099\times 10^{-23}}=3.14\times 10^{-8}cm=314pm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10.28%3D%5Cfrac%7B2%5Ctimes%2095.94%7D%7B6.022%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B23%7D%5Ctimes%20%28a%29%5E3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%5E3%3D%5Cfrac%7B2%5Ctimes%2095.94%7D%7B6.022%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B23%7D%5Ctimes%2010.28%7D%3D3.099%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-23%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B3.099%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-23%7D%7D%3D3.14%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-8%7Dcm%3D314pm)
Conversion factor used:
Hence, the edge length of the unit cell is 314 pm
To calculate the edge length, we use the relation between the radius and edge length for BCC lattice:

where,
R = radius of the lattice = ?
a = edge length = 314 pm
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the radius of the molybdenum atom is 135.9 pm
Answer:
Solid:- Particles vibrate in a rigid structure and do not move relative to their neighbors.
Liquid:- It takes the shape of its container but keeps a constant volume.
Gas:- Particles move rapidly and independently of each other.
Plasma:- It is the most common state of matter in the universe.
Explanation:
Solids are one of the three states of matter and, unlike liquids or gases, they have a definite shape that is not easy to change. Different solids have particular properties such as stretch, STRENGTH, or hardness that make them useful for different jobs.
A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure
Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Gases have lower density than other states of matter, such as solids and liquids. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container.
A plasma is a gas that has been energized to the point that some of the electrons break free from, but travel with, their nucleus.
I believe it can be warm because usually the surface below us is warm itself, causing the air to be warm as well. The temperature can vary as well
