Use Clausius-Mossotti equation to determine the polarizibility of atoms in the air molecules, where the number density of dry air is 2.504×1025 m-3. Assume the result for nitrogen atom and compute the relative displacement of nitrogen nucleus and electronic cloud at a field strength Em= 3×106 V/m.
For the simple cubic crystal described above, i.e. a = 0.7\: nma=0.7nm, calculate the surface density of atoms (i.e. number of atoms per unit area) on the (100) plane in unit of cm^{-2}cm−2. Values within 5% error will be considered correct.
