Answer to Question #264563 in General Chemistry for vjansyo

Question

A metal occurs as body centered cube and has a density of 7.856 g/cm3. calculate the atomic radius of metal. atomic mass of metal is 58 g/ mol. find atomic radius of metal. 

Answer 1

a= $\frac{4r}{√m}$

7.856= 4×r/√58

7.856= 4r/7.62

4r= 7.62×7.856

4r= 59.86

r=14.97cm
