M = 23+35.5; // Molecular weight of NaCl, kg per k-mole
d = 2.18e+03; // Density of rock salt, kg per metre cube
n = 4; // No. of atoms per unit cell for an fcc lattice of NaCl crystal

// Volume of the unit cell is given by

// Solving for a

// Result
// Lattice parameter for the NaCl crystal = 5.63 angstrom
