To calculate the atomic radius of niobium (Nb) which crystallizes in a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - Density (d) of niobium = 8.55 g/cm³ - Atomic mass (m) of niobium = 93 u (which is equivalent to 93 g/mol) - The number of atoms per unit cell (Z) in BCC = 2 ### Step 2: Use the density formula ...
