Sodium (Na =23) crystallizen in bcc arrangement with the interfacial separation between the atoms at the edge `53.6 "pm"`. The density of sodium crystal is:

A

`2.07 g//c c`

B

`2.46g//c c`

C

`1.19 g//c c`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3
`a-2r=53.6p m`
also `4r=sqrt(3a)`
`rArr" "a-(sqrt(3))/(2)a=53.6" "rArr" "a=(53.6xx2)/(2-sqrt(3))=400p m`
Density `(rho)=(2xx23)/(6.023xx10^(23)xx4^(3)xx10^(-24))=1.19g//c c`
