- 7. CRYSTAL STRUCTURE Crystalstructure can be obtained by attaching atoms, groups of atoms or molecules which are called basis (motif) to the lattice sides of the lattice point. Crystal Structure = Crystal Lattice + Basis
- 8. THE REGULAR ARRANGEMENTOF POINTS INSTEAD OF ATOMS IS CALLED LATTICE. IT IS AN IMAGINARY CONCEPT Eg: egg box A GROUP OF ATOMS OR MOLECULE ATTACHED TO EACH LATTICE POINT WHICH ARE IDENTICAL IN COMPOSITION AND ORIENTATION IS CALLED BASIS Eg: EGGS

- 27. COORDINATION NUMBER CoordinatıonNumber (CN) : The Bravais lattice points closest to a given point are the nearest neighbours. Because the Bravais lattice is periodic, all points have the same number of nearest neighbours or coordination number. It is a property of the lattice. A simple cubic has coordination number 6; A body-centered cubic lattice, 8; A face-centered cubic lattice, 12. CrystalStructure
- 28. ATOMIC PACKING FACTOR Atomic Packing Factor (APF) is defined as the volume of atoms within the unit cell divided by the volume of the unit cell.
- 29. CrystalStructure 1-CUBIC CRYSTAL SYSTEM Simple Cubic has one lattice point so its primitive cell. In the unit cell on the left, the atoms at the corners are cut because only a portion (in this case 1/8) belongs to that cell. The rest of the atom belongs to neighboring cells. Coordinatination number of simple cubic is 6. a- Simple Cubic (SC) a b c

Sodium chloride structure consists of equal numbers of sodium and chlorine ions placed at alternate points of a simple cubic lattice. Each ion has six of the other kind of ions as its nearest neighbours.

SODIUM CHLORIDE STRUCTURE This structure can be considered as a face-centered- cubic Bravais lattice with a basis consisting of a sodium ion at 0 and a chlorine ion at the center of the conventional cell, LiF,NaBr,KCl,LiI,etc The lattice constants are in the order of 4-7 angstroms. )(2/ zyxa CrystalStructure

In addition to the two layers of atoms which form the base and the upper face of the hexagon, there is also an intervening layer of atoms arranged such that each of these atoms rest over a depression between three atoms in the base.
