Answer:
The coefficient tells you how many molecules of that substance there is. The subscript tells you what the substance it. It tells you the the amount of each element there are in the molecule. Changing it would change the substance itself.
Answer:
I believe this is called the 'molar mass'
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Mass = 27.9 g/mol
As we know that according to Avogadro's number there are
atom present in 1 mole. Therefore, weight of 1 atom will be as follows.
1 atoms weight =
In a diamond cubic cell, the number of atoms are 8. So, n = 8 for diamond cubic cell.
Therefore, total weight of atoms in a unit cell will be as follows.
= 
= 
Now, we will calculate the volume of a lattice with lattice constant 'a' (cubic diamond) as follows.
= 
= 
=
Formula to calculate density of diamond cell is as follows.
Density = 
= 
= 2918.1 
or, = 0.0029 g/cc (as 1
)
Thus, we can conclude that density of given semiconductor in grams/cc is 0.0029 g/cc.
