  1. Aluminium has a higher atomic packing factor than molybdenum by about 6%. This means that:









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    The atomic packing factor (APF) is the ratio of volume of atoms per unit cell to the volume of the unit cell i.e.

    APF
    Volume of atoms per unit cell
    Volume of the unit cell

    Since aluminium has 6% greater atomic packing factor, then it has a lesser inverse ratio of volume of unit cell to volume of atoms per unit cell.

    Correct Option: B

    The atomic packing factor (APF) is the ratio of volume of atoms per unit cell to the volume of the unit cell i.e.

    APF
    Volume of atoms per unit cell
    Volume of the unit cell

    Since aluminium has 6% greater atomic packing factor, then it has a lesser inverse ratio of volume of unit cell to volume of atoms per unit cell.
