In an orthorhombic crystal system,the values of $a$,$b$,and $c$ are $4.2 \, \mathring{A}$,$8.6 \, \mathring{A}$,and $8.3 \, \mathring{A}$ respectively. Given the molar mass of the solute is $155 \, g \, mol^{-1}$ and the density is $3.3 \, g \, cm^{-3}$,calculate the number of formula units $(Z)$ per unit cell.

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
