Calculate the number of atoms in a cube ...

Calculate the number of atoms in a cube based unit cell having one atom on each corner and two atoms on each body diagonal.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Number of atoms from 8 corners =`1/8xx8`=1
Number of atoms from 4 body diagonals = 2 x 4 =8
`therefore` Total number of atoms per unit cell = 9
