Here's my best guess
the volume of the unit cell is (385*10^-12)^3=5.7066*10^-29 m^3
multiply by density to get mass mass = (7 g/cm^3)*(100^3 cm^3 / 1^3 m^3) * 5.7066*10^-29 m^3= 3.99466*10^-22 g
covert to moles 3.99466*10^-22 g * 1 mol / 239.82 g = 1.6657 *10^-24 mol
convert to number of units

1.6657 *10^-24 mol * 6.23*10^23 units/mol = 1.04

385 pm = 3.85*10^(-8) cm

The volume of the unit cell is the cube of that, which is 5.71*10^(-23) cm^3. Since the ratio of mass to volume (i.e. the density) must be the same no matter what amount of TlCl you have, you can say:
7 = x/(5.71*10^(-23)), where x is the mass of the unit cell. Solving for x, you get 4*10^(-22) g.

The mass of a molecule of TlCl is 240 amu, which in grams is 4*10^(-22) g. The mass of the unit cell and the mass of a molecule of TlCl is the same. Therefore there is one formula unit of TlCl per unit cell.

ankoles [38]

There are some exceptions to the rule organisms such as a protist called a  euglena can be both heterotrophic and autotrophic. This is a true statement.

Explanation:

  • Euglena is a large genus of unicellular protists: they have both plant and animal characteristics
  • Photoautotrophs include protists that have chloroplasts, such as Spirogyra. Heterotrophs get their energy by consuming other organisms. Other protists can get their energy both from photosynthesis and from external energy sources
  • All live in water and move by means of a flag ellum. This is an animal characteristic. Most have chloroplasts, which are characteristic of algae and plants
  • Euglena is photosynthetic in the presence of sunlight i.e autotrophic, when deprived of sunlight they behave like heterotrophs by predating on other smaller organisms.
  • Most species of Euglena have photosynthesizing chloroplasts within the body of the cell, which enable them to feed by autotrophy, like plants. They can also take nourishment heterotrophically, like animals.
