Hey dear,

● Answer -
r = 128 pm

● Explaination -
Let a be edge length of unit cell.

# Given -
a = 362 pm = 3.62×10^-10 m

Radius of the largest atom that can fit in FCC lattice is calculated by -
r = a / 2√2
r = 3.62×10^-10 / 2.828
r = 1.28×10^-10 m
r = 128 pm

Therefore, radius of largest atom is 128 pm.

Hope this helps you...
