An element forms a body-centered cubic crystalline substance. The edge length of the unit cell is 287 pm and the density of the crystal is 7.92 g/cm3. Calculate the atomic weight of the substance.

The atomic weight of the substance is 2.4837 X 10⁻³ amu

Explanation:

For a body-centered cubic structure, the edge length is given as

Given edge length  in this problem is 287 pm

Volume of a sphere = = 1.333π*(124.27 X 10⁻¹²)³ = 5.206 X 10⁻³⁴ m³ X 10⁶ cm³ = 5.206 X 10⁻²⁸ cm³

Mass = density X volume

Mass = (7.92 g/cm³) *(5.206 X 10⁻²⁸ cm³) = 41.23 10⁻²⁸ g

1.66 x 10⁻²⁴g =  1 amu

41.23 10⁻²⁸ g = 2.4837 X 10⁻³ amu

Therefore, the atomic weight of the substance is 2.4837 X 10⁻³ amu

a boiling water reactor does not boil the water. a pressurized water reactor boils the water faster. a pressurized water reactor is heated directly by the core. a pressurized water reactor does not use fission.
