CsBr has bcc structure with edge length 4.3. The shortest interionic distance in between Cs + and Br¯ is –

3.72

1.86

7.44

4.3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

For bcc structure,

Atomic radius, r = a = × 4.3 = 1.86

we know that, r = half the distance between two nearest neighbouring atoms.

∴ shortest interionic distance = 2 × 1.86 = 3.72
