Length of one cell in our computer's ram [closed]

X64 Processor is the processor which can proceed 64 bit data in one time. This is the general definition that we can be encountered by. Data bus and length of registers are kept as 64-bit so that the processor can accomplish this.
What I am wondering is what length of one Random Access Memory cell is.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv)
{
int i;
int *array = malloc(4 * sizeof(int));
for(i = 0; i < 4; ++i){
printf("%d ", (array + i));
}
return 0;
}
When we investigate output of this code, we see these addresses or something like that.
20401488 20401492....
4 Byte is distributed on four addresses 20401488-20401491. Each address corresponds to a RAM cell. In this case, one cell has 8bit length. However, this notion can be wrong because these addresses are actually from virtual memory space.
Is there a way to learn length of one RAM cell except for this notion ?
