An element with density 2.8 g cm−3 forms of the f.c.c. unit cell with edge length 4 X10−8 cm. Calculate the molar mass of the element.
(Given: NA = 6.022 X 1023 mol −1)
Edge length, a = 4 x 10-8 cm
Density, d = 2.8 g cm-3
As the lattice is fcc type, the number of atoms per unit cell, z is 4.
Avogadro's number, NA = 6.022 x 1023 mol-1
Molar mass can be calculated with the help of given relation:
(i) What type of non-stoichiometric point defect is responsible for the pink colour of LiCl?
(ii) What type of stoichiometric defect is shown by NaCl?
OR
How will you distinguish between the following pairs of terms:
(i) Tetrahedral and octahedral voids
(ii) Crystal lattice and unit cell.
