Questions

Answer the following in one or two sentences.

Mention two properties that are common to both hcp and ccp lattices.

Give one property common to both hcp and ccp crystal lattices.

One Line Answer

Solution

Properties common to both hcp and ccp lattice are the same coordination number of the particles (i.e., 12) and the same packing efficiency (74%).
