Element X crystallizes in 12 co-ordination fcc lattice. On applying high temperature it changes to 8 co-ordination bcc lattice. Find the ratio of the density of the crystal lattice before and and after applying high temperature

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Co. number is 12 means it is fcc lattice

Co. number is 8 means it is bcc lattice

fcc bcc

ρ1=4×at.massNa×a13ρ2=2×at.massNa×a23

ρ 1 ρ 2 = 4 2 × a 2 3 a 1 3 = 2× 4r 3 3 (2 2r ) 3

=2×4×4×42×2×2×2×2(33)

=4233=2(2)3(3)3
