As learnt in

z for body centered unit cell -

Lattice points: at corners and body center of unit cell.

For body centered cubic (BCC), z=2

- wherein

 

 for bcc , Z = 2

Number of atoms = Z x number of unit cells

                             = 2 x 12.08 x 1023

                                   = 24.16 x 1023
