Calculate the number of atoms in a cubic unit cell having one atom on each corner and two atoms on each body diagonal. |
|
Answer» 8 corner × 1/8 atom per unit cell = 1 atom There are four body diagonals in a cubic unit cell and each has two body centre atoms. So, 4 × 2 = 8 atoms therefore, total number of atoms per unit cell = 1 + 8 = 9. |
