Question

The metal palladium crystallizes in a face-centered cubic lattice with an edge length of 388.8 pm. What is the density of the palladium?
388.8 pm = 3.888E-8 cm
Volume = (3.888E-8)<sup>3</sup> of the cube.

mass of cube with 4 atoms/unit cell.
4*atomic mass Pd/6.02E23 = ?

density = mass/volume
