About me

born and raised in Lino Lakes Minnesota

graduated from Centennial High School

Sodium choride unit cell



This is the unit cell representation my partner and I created,

The height,width,length are equal to roughly Different measurements I found were a 100 picometers or 10 nanometers for the radius of a chlroine atom that times two times three is equal to the diagonal of the cube then take the square root is equal to the side which is 7.75 nanometers in length

angstroms length .775 nanometers

in meters  .775x10^-10

mass of unit cell 3.8818x10^-23
283 grams per mole

salt cube 2.1446 grams per cubic cm

10 nanometers is the equivalent of five beach balls and to go one meter we would have to go one light year in distance.

And a mole of atoms can be compared to water droplets with a total volume of around two Indian Oceans.
