Answer: Edge length of the unit cell = 628pm

Explanation: For a body centred cubic structured system, the relationship between the edge length of the unit cell and radius of the atoms in the structure is

Edge length of Unit cell (a) = (4R)/(√3)

R = 272pm = (272 × (10^-12))m = (2.72 × (10^-10))m

a = (4 × (2.72 × (10^-10)))/(√3)

a = (6.28157 × (10^-10))m = 628pm

Simply look at the periodic table and fill in what you know based on the table

The number of protons = atomic number
The number of electrons, Which is the same as the atomic number for atoms.

The number of valence electrons that is given by the group that the element is in, the top number of each column in the periodic table.

How many moles of argon, Ar, are in 1.31×1024 Ar atoms?

ddd [48]

Answer:

2.18 mol Ar.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the definition of mole as the amount of particles of a given substance, it is possible to introduce the Avogadro's number to assert that 1 mole of any element contains 6.022x10²³ atoms; thus, the moles of Ar in the given amount of atoms turns out to be:

$1.31x10^{24}Ar atoms*\frac{1molAr}{6.022x10^{23}atoms}\\\\=2.18molAr$
