QJEEM21Chac51: JEE Main 2021 Chemistry - Class 12 JEEM21Chac51 Solution: The unit cell of copper corresponds to a face centered cube of…
The unit cell of copper corresponds to a face centered cube of edge length 3.596 with one copper atom at each lattice point. The calculated density of copper in kg/m3 is ___________. [Molar mass of Cu : 63.54 g; Avogadro Number = 6.022 1023]
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Density of copper,
Given, Z = 4, for fcc lattice,
M = 63.54 g mol 1
= 63.54 10 3 kg mol 1,
a = 3.596 = 3.596 10 10 m,
NA = 6.022 1023 mol 1
On putting given values, we get
kg/m3
