Solution

Given: Density (ρ) = 8.5 g/cm3, Edge length (a) = 3.25 × 10-8 cm, Mass of the species (x) = 0.3 g

To find: Number of unit cells in 0.3 g

Formula: Number of unit cells in x g of species = `x/(rho "a"^3)`

Calculation: Using formula,

Number of unit cells in 0.3 g of the species

`= (0.3 "g")/(8.5 "g cm"^-3 xx (3.25 xx 10^-8 "cm")^3)`

`= 1.03 xx 10^21`

Number of unit cells in 0.3 g of the given species is 1.03 × 1021.
