How many lattice points are there in one unit cell of each of the following lattice ? (i) Face-centred cubic (ii) Face-centred tetragonal (iii) Body-centred cubic.

Answer»

Solution :Face-centred cubic or face-centred TETRAGONAL :
There are particles on each corner and at the centre of each face in face-centred cubic.
Particles per unit cell =`(8xx(1)/(8))+(6xx(1)/(2))=4`
Body-centred cubic LATTICE :
There are particles on each corner and in the middle of the body of each unit cell.
Particles per unit cell = `(8xx(1)/(8))+1 =2`
