Which of the following is the correct option regarding the packing efficiency of crystal structures?(a) FCC=HCP>BCC(b) FCC>HCP=BCC(c) FCCBCCThe question was asked by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.This key question is from Principles topic in chapter Corrosion Principles of Corrosion Engineering

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) FCC=HCP>BCC

The best explanation: Packing EFFICIENCY = (VOLUME of ATOMS in unit cell/volume of the unit cell)*100. Packing-efficiency of FCC, HCP, and BCC is 74%, 74%, and 68%. Therefore, the correct ORDER is FCC=HCP>BCC.
