Question:

Calcium fluoride is the well-known mineral fluorite. Each unit cell contains four Ca2+ ions and eight F ions. The F ions fill all the tetrahedral holes in a face-centered cubic lattice of Ca2+ ions. The edge of the CaF2 unit cell is 5.46295 × 10−8 cm in length. The density of the solid is 3.1805 g/cm3. Use this information to calculate Avogadro’s number.
