Question

Stuck need help!

Problem is attached. please view attachment before answering. 

Really struggling with this concept.

Please show all work so I can better understand !

Thank you so much.

Lithium has an atomic radius of 0.152 nm, a BCC crystal structure, and an
atomic weight of 6.941 g/mol. Compute its theoretical density (in g/cm³). Show all your
steps and calculations.
If you are going to determine the density of a 3 cm x 3 cm by 2 cm block of lithium using
a caliper with a resolution of 0.05 mm and a balance of with a resolution of 0.1 g. Which
device contributes to a larger percent error? Assume that the error in the measurements is
only due to the minimum resolution. Clearly show your analysis and conclusion. Make
any necessary assumptions; however, clearly indicate them.
