Solution

The correct option is A 8π
Given element exist in simple cubic crystal

Zeff=1
Atomic radius, r=1.0 oA=108 cm
For sc,
Packing fraction =Z×Volume occupied by sphereVolume of the cube
Packing Fraction, P.F. =Z×43πr3a3

Density, ρ=Z×Ma3×NA
where, a is edge length of unit cell.

Ratio of P.F.ρ=4πr3×NA3×M=0.1
4π×(108)3×6×10233×M=0.1
M=8π
