Question
The crystal system of a compound with unit cell dimensions $\mathrm{a}=0.387, \mathrm{~b}=0.387$ and $\mathrm{c}=0.504 \mathrm{~nm}$ and$\alpha=\beta=90^{\circ}$ and $\gamma=120^{\circ}$ is:(a) Cubic(b) Hexagonal(c) Rhombohedral(d) Orthorhombic
Step 1
Step 1: The crystal system of a compound is determined by the lengths of the unit cell edges (a, b, c) and the angles between them (α, β, γ). Show more…
