Question

What mineral crystal structure is this?

  1. Hexagonal
  2. Tetragonal
  3. Cubic
  4. Triclinic

hintHint:

Triclinic has the least symmetry.

The correct answer is: Triclinic


    • The hexagonal unit cell is a hexagonal prism with atoms on all 12 corners.
    • The tetragonal unit cell is a distortion of the simple cubic unit cell.
    • The cubic unit cell is the simplest unit cell with atoms at 8 corners.
    • The triclinic unit cell has the least symmetry, length, breadth, and height all are different.
