In crystalline solids, which of the following element of symmetry is not present ?

A

Hexagonal

B

Orthorhombic

C

Cubic

D

Triclinic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In triclinic lattice, the eight lattice points are located, one each at the corners of triclinic lattice. Also `ane b ne c` and `alpha ne beta ne gamma.
There is no planes and no axes. Thus, triclinic lattice has no rotation of symmetry.
