The maximum percentage of available volume that can be filled in a face centered cubic system by an atom is........(A) 74%(B) 68%(C) 34%(D) 26% |
Answer» Correct answer is: (A) 74% Total volume of unit cell = 8\(\sqrt{8}r^3\) Volume occupied = \(\cfrac{16}{3}\pi r^3\) \(\therefore\) Packing efficiency =\(\cfrac{16}{3}\pi r^3\)\(\times\)\(\cfrac{1}{8\sqrt{8}r^3}\times100\) = 74.0 % |
