If a metal crystallises in bcc structure with edge length of unit cell4.29×10-8cm the radius of metal atom is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The relation between edge length and radius of an atom in a bcc structure is related as:
r=3/4α
Given,a=4.29×10-8cm
For bcc structure,
r=34a=34×4.29×10-8cm
=1.857×10-8cm≃1.86×10-8cm
