d =(Z × M/N A a 3) ( d FCC / d BCC )=((4 × M w / N A ×(2)3)/(2 × M w ) N A ×(2.5)3)=3.90

Q. A metal $M$ crystallizes into two lattices :- face centred cubic (fcc) and body centred cubic (bcc) with unit cell edge length of $2.0$ and $2.5 \overset{˚}{A}$ respectively. The ratio of densities of lattices fcc to bcc for the metal $M$ is ___ (Nearest integer)

$d = \frac{Z \times M}{N _{A} a ^{3}}$
$\frac{d _{FCC}}{d _{BCC}} = \frac{\frac{4 \times M _{w}}{N _{A} \times ( 2 ) ^{3}}}{\frac{2 \times M _{w}}{N _{A} \times ( 2.5 ) ^{3}}} = 3.90$
