Detailed Solution

Number of formula units/unit cell of NaCl = 4

Explanation:- NaCl has fcc arrangement Cl¯ ions occupy corners and face centres

Effective number of Cl¯ ions/unitcel

large =left( 8times frac{1}{8} right)+6left( frac{1}{2} right)=4

Na+ ions occupy edge centres and body centre

Effective number of Na+ ions/unit  cell

large =12left( frac{1}{4} right)+1left( 1 right)=4

Thus number of NaCl units/unit cell = 4Na+4Cl¯

 

                                                          = 4NaCl units

We know,

58.5 g of NaCl contian "NA" NaCl units

58.5 g of NaCl contain 

large frac{{{N}_{A}}}{4}

unit cells

"X" g of NaCl conain NA unit cells (1 mole of unit cells)

large X=frac{58.5times {{N}_{A}}}{left( frac{{{N}_{A}}}{4} right)}g

     = 234 g
