To calculate the number of atoms in a cubic unit cell with one atom on each corner and two atoms on each body diagonal, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Count the Atoms at the Corners A cubic unit cell has 8 corners. Each corner atom is shared among 8 adjacent unit cells. Therefore, the contribution of each corner atom to the unit cell is: \[ \text{Contribution from corners} = 8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1 \text{ atom} \] ...
