Question:

The element polonium crystallizes in a cubic system. Bragg reflections, with X-rays of wavelength 154 pm, occur at sin θ = 0.225, 0.316, and 0.388 from the (100), (110), and (111) sets of planes. The separation between the sixth and seventh lines observed in the powder diffraction pattern is larger than between the fifth and sixth lines. Is the unit cell simple, body-centred, or face-centred? Calculate the unit cell dimension.
