    Total volume of atoms present in a fcc unit cell of a metal with radius r is

    A) \[\frac{12}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]

    B) \[\frac{16}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]

    C) \[\frac{20}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]

    D) \[\frac{24}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[a=2\sqrt{2}r\] Volume of the cell  \[={{a}^{3}}={{(2\sqrt{2}r)}^{3}}=16\sqrt{2}{{r}^{3}}\] No. of spheres in fcc\[~=8\times \frac{1}{8}+6\times \frac{1}{2}=4\] Volume of 4 spheres \[=4\times \frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}=\frac{16}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]
