Chemistry Question on Unit Cells
Number of unit cells in 4 g of X (atomic mass = 40) which crystallises in bcc pattern is iNA - Avogadro number)
A
0.1NA
B
2×0.1NA
C
20.1NA
D
2×NA
Answer
20.1NA
Explanation
Solution
4g of X=404 mole = 0.1 mole = 0.1×NA atoms .One bcc unit cell has 2 atoms, therefore, no. of unit cells in 0.1NA atoms =20.1NA
