How many lattice points are present in a face centred cubic unit cell?

Options

  1. A8
  2. B17
  3. C14
  4. D9

Correct answer

C. 14

Step-by-step solution

In face centred cubic unit cell atoms are present at each corner and at each face centre. No.of lattice points = no. of corners + no. of face centres aligned & =8+6 & =14 aligned
