    A solid has a 'bcc' structure. If the distance of nearest approach between two atoms is 1.73A,the edge length of the cell is   JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 07 May 2012)

    A) 314.20pm           

    B)                        1.41pm

    C)                        200pm 

    D)                        216pm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    For bcc structure\[\text{d=}\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2}\]where d = distance between two atoms a = edge length \[\text{1}\text{.73=}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a\]\[\text{a=}\frac{2\times 1.73}{\sqrt{3}}=2{\AA}=200pm\]
