A unit cell is the building block of a crystal or we can say it is the simplest repeating unit of a crystal lattice.unit cell when arranged in 3 dimensional pattern is known as crystal lattice.Mar 23, 2016

hello friend..!!
CRYSTAL LATTICE : a regular three dimensional arrangement of points in space is called crystal lattice .
there are only 14 pssible three dimensional lattices these are called bravais lattices.
UNIT CELL : unit cell is the smallest portion of a crystal lattice which, when repeated in different direction , generates the entire lattice.
it is characterised by its dimension along its three edges and angle formed.

hope it is useful...!!
