JEE Main 2022 · 28 Jul · Shift 1, Chemistry question 82

An element M crystallises in a body centred cubic unit cell with a cell edge of 300 pm. The density of the element is 6.0 g cm−3^{-3}. The number of atoms present in 180 g of the element is ______ ×1023\times10^{23}. (Nearest integer)

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 22

bcc (Z=2Z=2). M=ρNAa32=6×6.022×1023×2.7×10−232=48.8M=\frac{\rho N_Aa^3}2=\frac{6\times6.022\times10^{23}\times2.7\times10^{-23}}2=48.8 g mol−1^{-1}.

Atoms 18048.8×6.022×1023=22.2×1023\frac{180}{48.8}\times6.022\times10^{23}=22.2\times10^{23}.

Answer: 22
