3. Crystalline structural unit of barium metal is a body-centered cubic cell. The edge length of the unit cell is 5.02x10-8 cm.

The density of the metal is 5.30 g/cm3. Assume that 68% of the unit cell is occupied by Ba atoms. The molar mass of barium is 137.3 g/mol. Using this information, calculate Avogadro’s number. Show your calculation procedure that allows you to derive Avogadro’s number. Your answer must show six digits after the decimal point (i.e., 6.pppx1023) that is not necessarily the same as the known value. By showing your calculation-result down to six digits after the decimal point, you showcase that you did calculate the number, instead of simply adopting the known Avogadro’s number available in open resources.

Answer:

The Avogadro's  number is N_A     =  6.02289 *10^{23}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The edge length is  L   = 5.02 * 10^{-8} \ cm= \frac{5.02 * 10^{-8} }{100}  =  5.02 * 10^{-10}

    The density of the metal is \rho =  5.30\ g/cm^3 = 5.30 * \frac{g}{cm^3}  * \frac{1*10^6}{1*10^3} = 5.30 *10^3kg/m^3

     The molar mass of  Ba is  Z  =  137.3 \ g/mol = \frac{137.3}{1000} =  0.1373 \  kg / mol

     

Generally the volume of a unit cell is  

       V =  L^3

substituting value

        V =  [5.02 *10^{-10}]^3

         V = 1.265*10^{-28}\ m^3  

From the question we are told that 68% of the unit cell is occupied by Ba atoms and that the structure is a metal which implies that the crystalline structure will be  (BCC),

The volume of barium atom is  

        V_a  =  \frac{V}{2}  * 0.68

substituting value

        V_a  =  \frac{ 1.265*10^{-28}}{2}  * 0.68

        V_a  = 4.301 *10^{-29} \ m^3

The Molar mass of barium is mathematically represented as

      Z  =  N_A V_a *  \rho

Where N_A is the Avogadro's number

 So  

      N_A     =   \frac{ Z}{ V_a *  \rho}

substituting value

     N_A     =   \frac{ 0.1373}{ 4.301*10^{-29} *  5.3*10^{3}}

     N_A     =  6.02289 *10^{23}

How glass tube filed with acidified potassium dichromate detect drunken driver
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction between alcohol and acidified potassium dichromate  is a redox reaction. This reaction can be used to detect a drunken driver.

Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids depending on the structure of the alcohol. Primary alcohols yield adehydes and carboxylic acids while secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones.

The colour of the acidified potassium dichromate turns from orange to green when exposed to alcohols from the breath of a drunken driver.
