By Avogadro's hypothesis, the actual volume occupied by the atoms in one gram of a substance is 2/3rd of the volume occupied by 1 gram of the substance.

Let us consider a sample of a substance of mass m and volume V. If M is its molecular weight and Avogadro number is N, then

Number of atoms in the given sample = NM×m=NmM

let each atom is a sphere of radius r..

So 

Actual volume of the atoms in the given sample = NmM×43πr3

 By Avogadro's hypothesis

NmM×43πr3=23V

If ρ is density of substance . Then

ρ=mV=>V=mρ

=>NmM×43πr3=23mρ

r=(M2πNρ)13

Knowing values of M,N and ρ

We can find radius
