The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the orthorhombic system's axial ratios and axial angles, we can break it down into the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Axial Ratios**: - In crystallography, the axial ratios refer to the lengths of the edges of the unit cell along the three axes, which are typically denoted as 'a', 'b', and 'c'. - For the orthorhombic system, the relationship between these axes is defined as: \[ a \neq b \neq c \] - This means that the lengths of the edges along the x, y, and z axes are all different. 2. **Understanding Axial Angles**: - The axial angles are the angles between the edges of the unit cell. They are denoted as alpha (α), beta (β), and gamma (γ). - For the orthorhombic system, the axial angles are defined as: \[ \alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90^\circ \] - This indicates that all angles between the axes are right angles. 3. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, for the orthorhombic system, we conclude that: - The axial ratios are \( a \neq b \neq c \). - The axial angles are \( \alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90^\circ \). ### Final Answer: - **Axial Ratios**: \( a \neq b \neq c \) - **Axial Angles**: \( \alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90^\circ \) ---
