Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The unit cell of potassium crystal has to be drawn. Also the problem in drawing electron-dot structure of potassium crystal has to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Unit cell:
Unit cell is defined as a group of small atoms with total symmetry of a crystal and whole lattice can be raised by repetitions in
Body-centered cubic unit cell:
In body centered cubic unit cell atoms occupy eight corners of cube and one atom at the center. Thus, atom in the corner is shared by eight cubic unit cell.
