A compound having bcc geometry has atomic mass 50. Calculate the density of the unit cell if its edge length is 290 pm.

Answer» For bcc geometry number of atoms per unit cell (Z)=2
Atomic mass (A) =50
Edge length (a)=`290xx10^(-10)` cm
Density `(rho)`=?
`rho=(ZxxA)/(N_0xxa^3)=(2xx50)/(6.02xx10^23xx(290xx10^(-10))^3=6.83 g//cm^3`
