Iron has an fcc structure at temperatures higher than 913 degree centigrade, and bcc structure below this temperature. At 1148 oC, iron can dissolve maximum of 2.08% of carbon to form steel. However, at temperature lower than 723 oC, iron can only dissolve maximum 0.025% carbon. The atomic radius is 0.129 nm in both structures (don't consider thermal expansion). One of the largest void is located at (0, ½ , 0) for fcc.
What is the largest void size in the fcc structure of iron?
