Count the number of atoms that are all the way inside the cell. Each of these counts as 1. Count the number of atoms that are on a face, but not a corner or edge of the cell. Each of these count as 1/2. Count the number of atoms that are on an edge, but not a corner of the cell. Each of these count as 1/4. Count the number of atoms that are on a corner of the cell. Each of these count as 1/8. The final formula is: inside + 1/2 face + 1/4 edge +1/8 corner = total atoms per cell.
A FCC or Face Centered cubic unit cell has 4 atoms. It is calculated like this. There are 8 corners of the unit cell and each corner has one atom.But each atom is shared by 8 unit cells. So. total no. of atoms at corners= 1/8 *8=1 atom . Also, there are 6 faces which have one electron in the centre of it. Each such electron is shared between 2 unit cells. This gives the total no. of atoms at the centre of faces of unit cell=1/2 * 6 = 3 atoms. Adding the two, we get four atoms in an unit cell 1+3=4 atoms.

The coefficient times the subscripts in a chemical formula show you the number of atoms of each element for each substance in the equation.
You multiply the coefficient times the subscripts (number of atoms of each type in the formula) to get the total number of atoms of each element. For example: 2CO2 means 2 carbon atoms and 4 oxygen atoms (No subscript is understood to be 1.) 3C6H12O6 means 18 carbon atoms, 36 hydrogen atoms, 18 oxygen atoms
It is important to know the relative number of atoms of each element in a compound for the chemical composition.
A chemical analysis and a molar mass determination are needed.
same number of each element

each of atoms have electrons that equql to atomic number of that of atoms
In this case, the equation is balanced.
In this case, the equation is balanced.
In a diamond unit cell, each carbon atom is located at the corners of the unit cell. Since there are eight corners in a unit cell, each shared by 8 adjacent unit cells, the contribution to the total number of carbon atoms is 1/8 of a carbon atom per unit cell. Therefore, there is 1 carbon atom per unit cell.
Draw the structure based on the name. Then count the number of times each atom appears in the structure. Alternately, you can determine the formula from the structure - and then count all atoms of each type.

The coefficient times the subscripts in a chemical formula show you the number of atoms of each element for each substance in the equation.
Look at the subscripted number to the right each element's symbol. That is how many atoms of that element are in one formula unit. If no number appears next to the chemical symbol, then the number of atoms is 1. The total number of atoms is the sum of the number of atoms of each element. For example, the formula for sulfuric acid is H2SO4, a compound of the three elements hydrogen (H), sulfur (S), and Oxygen (O). Hydrogen's subscript is 2, oxygen's is 4, and Sulfur does not have a subscript. So 1 molecule of sulfuric acid contains 2 hydrogen atoms, 1 sulfur atom, and 4 oxygen atoms, for a total of 7.
