Question

14. Atomic packing factor is
(a) Distance between two adjacent atoms (b) Projected area fraction of atoms on a plane
(c) Volume fraction of atoms in cell (d) None​

Answer 1

Answer:

c is the answer the right answer

Answer 2

Atomic packing factor is the volume fraction of atoms in cell.

• Atomic packing factor which is also known as the atomic packing efficiency or even known as the packing factor is the fraction of volume in a particular crystal structure that has been occupied by the particles.
• Atomic packing factor can be simply found out by first calculating the volume of a particle in the crystal structure and then multiply it with the number of particles present in the crystal structure and then divide the whole value by the total volume of crystal structure.
