Explanation:-
All snowflakes contain six sides or points owing to the way in which they form. The molecules in ice crystals join to one another in a hexagonal structure, an arrangement which allows water molecules - each with one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms - to form together in the most efficient way.
Individual ice crystals form in the high atmosphere when water vapour freezes around tiny particles of dust or salt. ... It is believed that the angle at which the hydrogen atoms protrude from the oxygen, being about 120 degrees, results in snow crystals with the familiar six-sided symmetry.
