Packing Efficiency Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Packing Efficiency = (Volume Occupied by Spheres in Unit Cell/Total Volume of Unit Cell)*100
P = (v/V)*100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Packing Efficiency - The Packing Efficiency is the ratio of volume occupied by all the spheres in unit cell to the total volume of unit cell.
Volume Occupied by Spheres in Unit Cell - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Volume Occupied by Spheres in Unit Cell is the total volume occupied by all the atoms present in the unit cell.
Total Volume of Unit Cell - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Total Volume of Unit Cell is geometrical volume of unit cell.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume Occupied by Spheres in Unit Cell: 70 Cubic Meter --> 70 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Total Volume of Unit Cell: 90 Cubic Meter --> 90 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P = (v/V)*100 --> (70/90)*100

Evaluating ... ...

What is Unit Cell?

The smallest repeating unit of the crystal lattice is the unit cell, the building block of a crystal.

The unit cells which are all identical are defined in such a way that they fill space without overlapping. The 3D arrangement of atoms, molecules or ions inside a crystal is called a crystal lattice. It is made up of numerous unit cells. One of the three constituent particles takes up every lattice point.

A unit cell can either be primitive cubic, body-centred cubic (BCC) or face-centred cubic (FCC). In this section, we will discuss the three types of unit cell in detail.
