Answer» Molar volume from pykonometic density = `("weight of mass")/("density")=("Weight" (W))/(2.165xx10^(3))m^(3)` Molar volume from X-ray density= `(W)/(2.178xx10^(3))m^(3)` Volume unoccupied `=(W)/(10^(3))((1)/(2.165)-(1)/(2.178))m^(3)=(0.013Wxx10^(-3))/(2.165xx2.178)` `therefore` Fraction unoccupied `=((0.013Wxx10^(-3))/(2.165xx2.178))//((Wxx10^(-3))/(2.165))=5.96xx10^(-3)` |
