Question:
Estimating the radius of a lead atom.
(a) You are given a cube of lead that is 1.000 cm on each side. The density of lead is 11.35 g/ cm3. How many atoms of lead are in the sample?
(b) Atoms are spherical; therefore, the lead atoms in this sample cannot fill all the available space. As an approximation, assume that 60% of the space of the cube is filled with spherical lead atoms. Calculate the volume of one lead atom from this information. From the calculated volume (V) and the formula (4/3)πr3 for the volume of a sphere, estimate the radius (r) of a lead atom.
