Answer:

Density of unit cell ( rhodium) = 12.279 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given that:

The radius (r) of a rhodium atom = 135 pm

The atomic mass of rhodium = 102.90 amu

For a face-centered cubic unit cell,

r = \dfrac{a}{2\sqrt{2}}

where;

a = edge length.

Making "a" the subject of the formula:

a = 2 \sqrt{2} \times r

a = 2 \times 1.414 \times 135 \ pm

a = 381.8 pm

to cm, we get:

a = 381.8 × 10⁻¹⁰ cm

However, recall that:

density \ of \ unit \ cell = \dfrac{mass \ of \ unit \ cell}{volume \ of \unit \ cell}

where;

mass of unit cell = mass of atom × numbers of atoms per unit cell

Also;

mass\  of\ atom =\dfrac{ atomic \ mass}{Avogadro  \  number}

mass\  of\ atom =\dfrac{ 102.9}{6.023 \times 10^{23}}

Recall also that number of atoms in a unit cell for a  face-centered cubic = 4

So;

mass \ of \ unit \ cell= \dfrac{102.90}{6.023 \times 10^{23}}\times 4

mass of unit cell = 6.83380375 × 10⁻²² g

Density  \ of  \ unit \  cell = \dfrac{6.83380375 \times 10^{-22}}{(381.8\times 10^{-10})^3}

Density of unit cell ( rhodium) = 12.279 g/cm³

Calculate the number of atoms in 2.0g of hydrogen atoms?
Jobisdone [24]
First you calculate how many moles there are in 2.0 grams of hydrogen (H2) atoms.
Hydrogen has a relative atomic mass (RAM) of 1 g/mol, but there are 2 hydrogen atoms: 1 x 2 = 2 g/mol

To work out how many moles there are,
use the formula: n(moles) = mass ÷ molar mass
n(moles) = 2 grams ÷ 2 g/mol = 1 mol

Then use Avogadro's Constant : 6.023 x 10^23
= 1 x 6.023 x 10^23
= 6.023 x 10^23

Final step is to multiply it by the number of atoms, in this case there are 2.
= 6.023 x 10^23 x 2
= 12.046 x 10^23
= 1.205 x 10^24

that ^ should be your final answer

have a great day :)
