The metal = Platinum(Pt)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

FCC : Face centered cubic : the unit structures of the unit cell((other than BCC, HCP)

In FCC ⇒ atoms on every corner and side (total 4 atoms)

The length of the face diagonal (b) = 4 times the atomic radius  (r)

Formula :

\tt b=4r

\tt a=r\sqrt{8}

\tt V=16r\sqrt{2}=a^3

\tt \rho=\dfrac{n.Ar}{V.No}

Ar = atomic mass, g/mol

No = Avogadro number = 6.02.10²³

n = number of atoms

V = volume (cm³)

a = side length  

b = diagonal of the side surface  

r = atomic radius

a= 392 pm=3.92 x 10⁻⁸ cm

ρ = 21.45 g/cm³

\tt V=a^3\\\\V=(3.92\times 10^{-8})^3\\\\V=6.024\times 10^{-23}~cm^3

The atomic mass :

\tt 21.45~g/cm^3=\dfrac{4\times Ar}{6.024\times 10^{-23}\times 6.02\times 10^{23}}\\\\Ar=194.47\approx 195~g/mol

radius :

\tt a=r\sqrt{8}\\\\3.92\times 10^{-8}=r\sqrt{8}\\\\r=1.386\times 10^{-8}~cm

Element with atomic mass 195 g/mol and radius = 139 pm (1.386x10⁻⁸cm) = Platinum(Pt)

According to the law of conservation of mass, if an element A has an atomic mass of 2 mass units and element B has an atomic mas
LenaWriter [7]
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed. Since we have 2 g/mol of A and 3 g/mol of B then AB should be equal to the sum of their molar mass that is 

2 g/mol + 3 g/mol = 5 g/mol AB

for the case of A2B3

A2 = 2 * 2 = 4 g/mol
B3 = 3 * 3 = 9 g/mol

therefore A2B3 = 13 g/mol
