In a face centred cubic arrangement of metallic atoms, what is the relative ratio of the sizes of tetrahedral and octahedral voids ?

A

0.543

B

0.732

C

0.414

D

0.637

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`(r_("tetrahedral"))/(r_("octahedral")) = (0.225 R)/(0.414R) = 0.543`
