    Which of the following is correct               [DPMT 1997]

    A)
    Crystal system Axial distance Axial angles Examples
    Cubic \[a\ne ~b=c\] \[\alpha =\beta \ne \gamma =90{}^\circ \] \[Cu,\text{ }KCl\]

    B)
    Crystal system Axial distance Axial angles Examples
    Monoclinic \[a\ne ~b=c\] \[\alpha =\beta =\gamma =90{}^\circ \] \[PbCr{{O}_{2}},PbCr{{O}_{4}}\]

    C)
    Crystal system Axial distance Axial angles Examples
    Rhombohedral \[a=~b=c\] \[\alpha =\beta =\gamma \ne 90{}^\circ \] \[CaC{{O}_{3}},\text{ }HgS\]

    D)
    Crystal system Axial distance Axial angles Examples
    Triclinic \[a=~b=c\] \[\alpha \ne \beta =\gamma \ne 90{}^\circ \] \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}},\text{ }CuS{{O}_{4}}.\text{ }5{{H}_{2}}O\]
     

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               Rhombohedral crystal system                    \[a=b=c\], \[\alpha =\beta =\gamma \ne {{90}^{o}}\]                                 ex ? \[NaN{{O}_{3}}\], \[CaS{{O}_{4}}\], calcite \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\], \[HgS\]
