Lithium metal crystallizes in a body centred cubic crystals. If the length of the side of the unit cell of lithium is `351p m` the atomic radius of the lithium will beA. `151.8p m`B. `75.5p m`C. `300.5p m`D. `240.8p m`

Answer» Correct Answer - 1
For a body centred cubic unit cell we have
`4r=sqrt(3)a`
or `r=(sqrt(3))/(4)`
`=(1.732)/(4)(351p m)`
`=151.98p m`
