Match the following structures with their type of unit cell
Match the following structures with their type of unit cell
Here the types of unit cells are given using lattice points
Recall the types of unit cells.
Primitive Unit Cells:
When constituent particles are present only on the corner positions of a unit cell, it is called as primitive unit cell.
Centered Unit Cells:
Body-centered unit cells: Such a unit cell contains one constituent particle (atoms, molecule, or ion) at its body centre besides the ones that are at its corners.
Face-centered unit cells: Such a unit cell contains one constituent particle present at the centre of each face, besides the ones that are at its corners.
Therefore,
BCC (Particles on corner and at body-center)
Primitive (Particles on corners)
FCC (Particles on corners and at face centers)
