A given metal crystallizes out with a cubic structure having edge length of 361 pm. If there are four metal atoms in one unit cell, what is the radius of one atom?
ReportQuestion
Explanation:
There are four metal atoms in one unit cell, the unit cell is fcc type.
For the fcc unit cell,
4r = √2 a
r = √2/4a
r = 0.3535 a,
where, a is the edge length of the unit cell and r is radius
Then r=0.3535×361 pm =127.6 pm
So, the radius of one atom is 127.6 pm.
Final answer:
(D) 127.6 pm
