Iron crystallises in a body centred cubic structure. Calculate the radius of ioun atom if edge length of unit cell is 286 pm.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
123.84 pm

Edge length (a) = 286 pm. For a bcc unit cell,
Atomic radius `(r)=(sqrt3a)/(4)=(1.732xx("286pm"))/(4)=123.84"pm."`
