If a the length of the side of a cube, the distance between the body centered atom one corner atom in the cube will be

  • A
    23a
  • B
    43a
  • C
    34a
  • Correct answer
    D
    32a

Solution

In a regular cube let the edge length be a.

Then the face diagonal will be 2a

Body diagonal is 3a.

The distance between the center of the cube and the corner is the half distance of the body diagonal i.e 3a2.
