Question

Packing density for hcp
fraction
​

Answer 1

Answer:

74%

HCP has a packing fraction of 74% assuming a hard sphere packing. This packing also implies an ideal c/a ratio (see below). As real crystals do not have an ideal c/a ratio (table below), this also implies that they are not closest packed in the 'strictest sense'..........................
