Question
Which among the following options give the correct relationship between the edge lengths ‘a’ and the radius of a sphere ‘r’ in a body-centered cubic structure.
Options:
A .  a=√34r
B .  r=a2√2
C .  r=√34a 
D .  r=a2
Answer: Option C
:
C
In EFD,
b = a + a = 2a
Now in AFD
c2=a2+b2=a2+2a2=3a2
c=3a
The length of the body diagonal 'c' is equal to 4r, where r is the radius of the sphere (atom), as the three spheres along the diagonal touch each other.
Therefore, 3a=4r
a=4r3
r=34a
Which Among The Following Options Give The Correct Relations...
