Brass is a substitutional solid solution alloy consisting of 66 wt% Cu and 34 wt% Zn. The density of the pure Cu and Zn are 8.96 g/cm' and 7.13 g/cm', respectively. Avogadro constant NA = 6.022×1023 atoms/mol. The atomic weights of Zn and Cu are 65.38 g/mol and 63.55 g/mol, respectively. Compute the number of Zn atoms per cubic centimeter of brass.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

wt% of Zn=C1=34%

wt% of Cu= C2=66%

Density of Zn ρZn=7.13g/cm3

Density of Cu ρCu=8.96g/cm3

NA=6.022×1023

Atomic weight AZn=65.38g/mol

Atomic weight ACu=63.55g/mol
