Nanoparticles are finding many applications including medicine, magnetic permanent memory, and high strength materials. Assume that a high strength nickel alloy is to be made out of nanoparticles, and that the size of the nanoparticles is a cube 10 nm on each side. Calculate the number of atoms in these particles in two ways.
(a) For face centered cubic nickel calculate the number of atoms using only the lattice parameter of 0.352 nm from Appendix B and
(b) using the density of nickel and the atomic mass from Appendix B.
