Explain close packing in one dimension.

Answer»

Solution :The spheres in one dimension can be arranged only in one WAY that is to ARRANGE them in a row and TOUCHING each other.

In this arrangement, each SPHERE is in contact with two of its NEIGHBOURS. The numbers of nearest neighbours of a particle is called coordination number. Thus, in one dimensional arrangement, the co-ordination number is two.
