Answer:
Atomic radius of Strontium is 27.38pm
Explanation:
In a face-centered cubic structure, the edge, a, could be obtained using pythagoras theorem knowing the hypotenuse of the unit cell, b, is equal to 4r:
a² + a² = b² = (4r)²
2a² = 16r²
a = √8 r
As edge length of Strontium is 77.43pm:
77.43pm / √8 = r
27.38pm = r
Atomic radius of Strontium is 27.38pm
