Packing refers to the arrangement of constituent units in such a way that the forces of attraction among the constituent particles is the maximum and the contituents occupy the maximum available space. In two dimensions, there are hexagonal close packing and cubic close packing. In three dimentions, there are hexagonal, cubic as well as body centred close packings. The pattern of successive layers in ccp arrangement is:
