(c) If the ionic radii of Ca²+ and O2- are 0.1 nm and 0.14 nm repectively. Given the Avogadro's number is 6.023x1023 atoms/mol and the atomic weights of Ca²+ and O²- are 40.078 amu and 15.999 amu respectively, calculate the following parameters of calcium oxide. (i) Ionic packing factor of CaO. (4 marks) (ii) Theoretical density (give your answer in g/cm³). (3 marks)
