The volume occupied by a single $CsCl$ ion pair in a crystal is $7.014 \times 10^{-23} \ cm^{3}$. The smallest $Cs^{+}-Cs^{+}$ inter-nuclear distance is equal to the length of the side of the cube corresponding to the volume of one $CsCl$ ion pair. The smallest $Cs^{+}-Cs^{+}$ inter-nuclear distance is nearly:
