To derive the relationship between the radius of the octahedral void (r) and the radius of the atoms in close packing (R), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding the Geometry In a close-packed structure, the octahedral void is formed between atoms. We can visualize this by considering a cube where atoms are located at the corners and the center of the cube. ### Step 2: Identifying the Distances In the cube: - The distance between two opposite corners of the cube (which is the diagonal) can be represented as \( BC \). ...
