Copper, Cu, crystallizes in a face centered cubic unit cell. The density of
the metal is 8.96 g/cm 3. A scientist believes that the radius of one Cu
atom is 1.321 x 10 - 8 cm. What is the length of cell, calculate the
volume of the unit cell by cubing it, calculate the mass of a unit cell, and
What is the mass of each atom? He uses this number to calculate
Avogadro's number. What number does he get? (Hint: It is not 6.02 x
10 23.).

- The CsCl structure is a simple cubic array of chloride ions with a cesium ion at the center of each cubic array (see Exercise 69). Given that the density of cesium chloride is 3.97 g/cm3, and assuming that the chloride and cesium ions touch along the body diagonal of the cubic unit cell, calculate the distance between the centers of adjacent Cs+ and Cl ions in the solid. Compare this value with the expected distance based on the sizes of the ions. The ionic radius of Cs+ is 169 pm, and the ionic radius of Cl is 181 pm.arrow_forwardCalculate the percent of volume that is actually occupied by spheres in a face-centered cubic lattice of identical spheres. You can do this by first relating the radius of a sphere, r, to the length of an edge of a unit cell, l. (Note that the spheres do not touch along an edge but do touch along the diagonal of a face.) Then calculate the volume of a unit cell in terms of r. The volume occupied by spheres equals the number of spheres per unit cell times the volume of a sphere (4r3/3).arrow_forwardA portion of the crystalline lattice for potassium is illustrated below.
