How will you distinguish between the following pairs of terms :
Tetrahedral and octahedral voids.
Crystal lattice and unit cell.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Tetrahedral void is surrounded by 4 constituent particles (atoms/molecules/ions).
Octahedral void is surrounded by 6 constituent particles (atoms/molecules/ions).
OR
A regular three dimensional arrangement of points in space is called a crystal lattice.
Unit cell is the smallest portion of a crystal lattice which, when repeated in three directions, generates an entire lattice/unit cell is the miniature of crystal lattice/microscopic edition of the crystal lattice.
