To find the packing fraction in a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Packing Fraction The packing fraction is defined as the fraction of volume occupied by the atoms in a unit cell compared to the total volume of the unit cell. It can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \text{Packing Fraction} = \frac{\text{Volume of atoms in unit cell}}{\text{Volume of unit cell}} \] ...
