A specimen is made of 80 atom % iron and 20 atom % Ni. When sufficient FCC nickel is added to BCC iron, it is possible to produce FCC iron-nickel alloys, which are austenitic. The results of an x-ray diffractometer scan of this specimen with cobalt K? radiation that has a wavelength of 0.1790 nm results in peak intensities at the following angles: 26.1°, 30.56°, 45.99°, 57.49°, and 61.74°.

(a) Is this iron-nickel alloy BCC or FCC? (b) Determine the lattice parameter using the 26.1? peak.
