Answer:
lattice parameter = 5.3355x10^-8 cm
atomic radius = 2.3103x10^-8 cm
Explanation:
known data:
p=0.855 g/cm^3
atomic mass = 39.09 g/mol
atoms/cell = 2 atoms
Avogadro number = 6.02x10^23 atom/mol
a) the lattice parameter:
Since potassium has a cubic structure, its volume is equal to:
v = [(atoms/cell)x(atomic mass)/(p)x(Avogadro number)]
substituting values:
v =[(2)x(39.09)/(0.855x6.02x10^23)]=1.5189x10^-22 cm^3
but as the cell volume is
a^3 =v
cm
for a BCC structure, the atomic radius is equal to
Explanation:
Fundamentally the aluminum foil is a rectangular prism. It has a length, a width, and a thickness.
The volume of a rectangular prism is expressed as
If we know the volume and two of the three dimensions, we can rearrange the equation to solve for the thickness.
But we should also be sure to confirm our units.
A liter is defined as 1000 cm^3. Therefore a mL is equal to 1 cm^3.
You should convert the units of measure given in the problem statement such that the units are aligned. For example, 10.0mm will be 1 cm and 12.5m will be 1250 cm. This will give you a height in cm.
