Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1.184 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~cm}^3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\text{Volume of particles} = \text{Packing Efficiency} \times \text{Volume of unit cell}\) \(\text{Volume of particles} = 0.74 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~cm}^3\)
