    Lithium metal crystallises in a body centred cubic crystal. If the length of the side of the unit cell of lithium is 351 pm, the atomic radius of the lithium will be

    A) 240.8pm              

    B)        151.8pm              

    C)        75.5pm                

    D)        300.5pm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In case of body centred cubic (bcc) crystal, \[\frac{d[B{{r}_{2}}]}{dt}=-\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[B{{r}^{-}}]}{dt}\] Hence, atomic radius of lithium, \[\frac{d[B{{r}_{2}}]}{dt}=-\frac{5}{3}\frac{d[B{{r}^{-}}]}{dt}\] \[\frac{d[B{{r}_{2}}]}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\frac{d[B{{r}^{-}}]}{dt}\]                      \[\frac{d[B{{r}_{2}}]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[B{{r}^{-}}]}{dt}\]
