The edge lengths of the unit cells in terms of the radius of spheres constituting fcc,bcc and simple cubic unit cell are respectively________
The edge lengths of the unit cells in terms of the radius of spheres constituting fcc,bcc and simple cubic unit cell are respectively________

(i) 2√2r, 4r/√3, 2r

(ii) 4r/√3, 2√2r, 2r

(iii) 2r, 2√2r, 4r/√3

(iv) 2r, 4r/√3, 2√2r

 

 

Correct Answer: (i) 2√2r, 4r/√3, 2r

Explanation:

In fcc, a = 2√2r

In bcc, a = 4r/√3

In simole cubic, a = 2r
