What is the total volume of atom present in body centred unit cell having length of one edge as 69.3pm ?

**I want answer with full solution as soon as possible**

Dear student
Please find the solution to the asked query:

Total number of atoms in BCC =2
Edge length = 69.3pm​

For BCC the relation between r (radius ) of the sphere and edge length (a)is: r=34aTotal volume of two atoms= 2×43πr3=2×43π34a3=2×4×3.14334×69.33=226080=2.26080×105 pm3

Hope this information will clear your doubts regarding the topic. If you have any other doubts please ask here on the forum and our experts will try to solve them as soon as possible.

2*volume of sphere

Total number of atoms in BCC lattice = 2

Touching condition = sqrt(3) * a= 4r, where a is the edge length, r = radii of the atom

therefore, r = 30 pm

​Volume of the sphere = (4/3) pi * r^3

Total volume = 2 * Volume of sphere.
