1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Consider a metal with an BCC crystal structure and atomic weight 92.91. When monochromatic x-radiation having a wavelength of 0.14 nm is used, the angle of diffraction (2*theta) for the (211) set of planes in this metal occurs at 41.148 ° (first-order reflection).
Compute the density of this metal in g/cm^3
The sin function requires input in radians.
Use decimal notation, digits after decimal: 2
2. Relevant equations
a=4R/sqrt(3)
p=n*A/V*N
n*lamba=2d(hkl)sin(theta)
d(hkl)=a/sqrt(h^2 +k^2 + l^2)
3. The attempt at a solution
i basically broke down the equation into P=(2Asin(theta)) / ((a^2)(sqrt(h^2+k^2+l^2))
but for the vaule of a..... i don't have the radius to find the vaule of a soo any hints would be nice :)
