Question -
Which among the following options give the correct relationship between the edge lengths ‘a’ and the radius of a sphere ‘r’ in a body-centered cubic structure.
Options:
A .  a=√34r
B .  r=a2√2
C .  r=√34a
D .  r=a2
Answer: Option C : C In △EFD, b = a + a = 2a Now in △AFD c2=a2+b2=a2+2a2=3a2 →c=√3a The length of the body diagonal 'c' is equal to 4r, where r is the radius of the sphere (atom), as the three spheres along the diagonal touch each other. Therefore, √3a=4r a=4r√3 →r=√34a
