Calculate the number of vacancies per cubic meter at 1000∘C for a metal that has an energy for vacancy formation of 1.22 eV/atom, a density of 6.25g/cm^3, and an atomic weight of 37.4 g/mol.
(A) 1.49×10^18 m^−3
(B) 7.18×10^22 m^−3
(C) 1.49×10^24 m^−3
(D) 2.57×10^24 m^−3

Answer:

C

Explanation:

N = Na.P/A------(1)

Na = avogadro's number = 6.02210²³

P = density

A = atomic weight of metal

When we substitute into equation 1 above we get

1.0x10²⁹atoms/m³

From here we calculate the number of vacancies

T = 1000⁰c = 1273K

The formula to use is

Nv= Nexo(Qt/K.T) -----(2)

Qt = 1.22eV

K = Boltzmann's constant = 8.6210x10^-5

When we substitute values into equation 2

We get Nv = 1.49 x 10²⁴m-3

Therefore option c is correct
