Calculate the unit cell edge length for an 87 wt% Ag- 13 wt% Pd alloy. All of the palladium is in solid solution, and the crystal structure for this alloy is FCC. Room temperature densities for Ag and Pd are 10.49 g/cm3 and 12.02 g/cm3, respectively, and their respective atomic weights are 107.87 g/mol and 106.4 g/mol. Report your answer in nanometers. nm

Explanation:

   Since the crystal structure is FCC , every unit cell will have 4 atoms . If a be the edge length

average density = 4 x average atomic no / volume of unit cell x N

N is avogadro no or 6.02 x 10²³

average atomic no

= 100 / (87/107.9 +13/106.4) = 107.72

average density = 100 / (87/10.49 + 13/12.02)

= 10.667

10.667 = (4 x 107.72 )/ (a³x 6.02 x 10²³)

a³ = 4 x 107.72 / (10.667 x  6.02 x 10²³)

= 6.71 x 10⁻²³

a = 4.063 x 10⁻⁸ m

no but i do not usually comment or use my voice that much when it comes to social media

shield volcanos are angry and get mad over the smallest things so much that there heads erupt   pahoehoe and a'a lava. a composite volcano is the poller opposite of a shield volcano. its   peaceful thing and knows how to control its emotions.
