To calculate the number of atoms in a unit cell, you first determine the type of unit cell (simple cubic, body-centered cubic, or face-centered cubic) and the number of atoms contributed by each lattice point. Then, you multiply the number of lattice points within the unit cell by the number of atoms contributed per lattice point. For example, a simple cubic unit cell has one atom per lattice point, so the total number of atoms in a simple cubic unit cell would be 1 x 1 = 1 atom.
There are two oxygen atoms in one unit of the compound Ba(OH)2.

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.
In one formula unit of ammonia (NH3), there are a total of four atoms: one nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms.
There are five hydrogen atoms in one formula unit of the ammonium ion (NH4+).
There are two oxygen atoms in one unit of the compound Ba(OH)2.
There are 2 atoms of carbon in one formula unit of Na2C2O4.
Potassium iodide is two atoms, one of potassium and one of iodine.
a. There are 8 silicon atoms in each unit cell of a silicon crystal in a diamond cubic structure. b. The density of silicon is 2.33 g/cm^3, and the molar mass of silicon is approximately 28.09 g/mol. By using Avogadro's number, you can calculate that there are approximately 5 x 10^22 silicon atoms in one cubic centimeter.
