Q45 / 77 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Chemistry · Solid State
On breaking a cubic solid (edge = 1 m) into fine cubic particles of edge 1 , surface becomes . The value of n is?
Correct answer: 10.00
Solution
For a cube of dimension , the surface area
faces
The volume
For cubes of dimension , the total surface area
On breaking, the surface area becomes
times
= 1000000 times
Hence n = 10
