Question
The coordination number of atoms in body-centred cubic structure (bcc) is ______.
Options
4
6
8
12
Solution
The coordination number of atoms in body-centred cubic structure (bcc) is 8.
Explanation:
In body-centered cubic structure, atoms occupy all the corners of the cube and body centre position in a unit cell.
∴ Coordination number of atoms in BCC structure = 8
