प्रश्न

Gold (atomic radius = 0.144 nm) crystallises in a face-centred unit cell. What is the length of a side of the cell?

उत्तर

For a face-centred unit cell:

`a = 2sqrt2r`

It is given that the atomic radius, r = 0.144 nm

So, `a = 2sqrt2xx0.144 nm`

= 0.407 nm

Hence, length of a side of the cell = 0.407 nm
