Calculate the number of unit cells in 8.1 g of aluminium if it crystallises in a f.c.c. structure. (Atomic mass of Al = 27 g mol -1 )
27 g of Aluminium have 6.02 x 1023 atoms of Al
8.1g of Aluminium have 6.02 x 1023 x 8.1 / 27
= 12.06 x 1022 atoms of Aluminium
Now in FCC structure:
1 unit cell has 4 Aluminium atoms i.e.,
12.06 x 1022 atoms have 1/4 x 12.06 x 1022 unit cells
= 3.05x 1022 unit cells
