A metal M crystallizes into two lattices :- face centred cubic (fcc) and body centred cubic (bcc) with unit cell edge length of 2.02 . 0 and 2.5A°2 . 5\overset{°}{A} respectively. The ratio of densities of lattices fcc to bec for the metal M is _______(Nearest integer)

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The density of the crystal lattice can be calculated as follows,

d=Z×MNAa3d = \dfrac{Z \times M}{{N}_{A}{a}^{3}}

Z=Z =effective number of atoms in unit cell(For BCC=2 and FCC=4)

M=M =Molar mass

NA{N}_{A}=Avogadro's number

a=a =Edge length

dFCCdBCC=4×MwNA×(2)32×MwNA×(2.5)3=3.90\dfrac{{d}_{FCC}}{{d}_{BCC}} = \dfrac{\dfrac{4 \times {M}_{w}}{{N}_{A} \times ( 2{)}^{3}}}{\dfrac{2 \times {M}_{w}}{{N}_{A} \times ( 2 . 5{)}^{3}}} = 3 . 90
