Atoms of metals x, y and z form face-centred cubic (fcc) unit cell of edge length Lx, body-centred cubic (bcc) unit cell of edge length Ly and simple cubic unit cell of edge length Lz, respectively.
If \(r_{z}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} r_{y} ; r_{y}=\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} r_{x} ; M_{z}=\frac{3}{2} M_{y} \text { and } M_{z}=3 M_{x}\),
then the correct statement(s) is(are)
[Given: Mx, My and Mz are molar masses of metals x, y and z, respectively. rx, ry and rz are atomic radii of metals x, y and z, respectively.]
