  1. A \(124.27 \mathrm{pm}\)
  2. B \(143.51 \mathrm{pm}\)
  3. C \(101.45 \mathrm{pm}\)
  4. D \(57.4 \mathrm{pm}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(124.27 \mathrm{pm}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For bcc unit cell, \(4 \mathrm{r}=\sqrt{3} \mathrm{a}\)
\(
\therefore \mathrm{r}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \mathrm{a}=\frac{1.732 \times 287}{4}=124.27 \mathrm{pm}
