Answer

$\rho=8.50\frac{g}{cm^3}$

Work Step by Step

Given: Atomic weight=141 g\mol $a=b=0.35nm$ and $c=0.45 nm$ $\rho=\frac{nA}{{V_{c}}{N_{A}}}$ For BCC, n=2 . $V_{c}=a\times b \times c$ $V_{c}=0.35\times 0.35 \times 0.45 \times 10^{-21} cm^3$ $N_{A}=6.023\times10^{23} \frac{atom}{mol}$ $\rho=\frac{2\times 141}{0.35\times 0.35 \times 0.45 \times 10^-21 \times6.023\times10^{23}}$ $\rho=8.50\frac{g}{cm^3}$
