From atomic mass and density, estimate the lattice constants of Si, Ge, GaAs, InAs, and InSb. (I'm having trouble with the GaAs, InAs and InSb).

Here, as Diamond is a special type of FCC that's why n=8 is taken and for simple FCC structure n=4 is taken.

Estimate the mass of the Sun from the orbital period of the Earth (it’s presumed you know what this is !) and the Earth’s orbital radius of 93 million miles. If the Sun’s radius is 109 times that of the Earth, what is the Sun’s mean density? What is the acceleration due to gravity on the Sun’s surface? Is it sensible to go and measure this at night?
