The ratio of the volume of a tetragonal lattice unit cell to that of a hexagonal lattice unit cell is (both having same respective lengths)

A

`(sqrt3)/2abc`

B

`(2)/(3sqrt3)`

C

`(2)/(sqrt(3) (a^(2)c)/(b)`

D

`1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Ratio `= (abc)/(6 xx ((sqrt(3))/(4)a^(2)) xx c) = (2)/(3sqrt(3))`
