Lithium forms body centred cube structure .The length of the side of its unirt cell is 351 pm Atomic radius of the lithium will beA. `151.8 "pm"`B. `75.6 "pm"`C. `300.5 "pm"`D. `240.8 "pm"`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Since lithium crystallises in a body centred cubic crystal,
Atomic radius `(r)=(sqrt(3)a)/4=a/(2sqrt(2))`
`=sqrt(3)/4xx351"pm"=151.8 "pm"`
