Consider a Body Centered Cubic(bcc) arrangement, let de, dfd,
dbd be the distances between successive atoms located along the edge,

the face-diagonal, the body diagonal respectively in a unit cell.Their

order is given by

Show answer and solution
dfd=2ad_{fd} = \sqrt{2}a
dbd=3a2d_{bd} = \frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2}
∴dfd>de>dbd\therefore d_{fd} > d_{e} > d_{bd}
