    A fee crystal contains how many atoms in each unit cell?

    A)  4               

    B)  6

    C)  3               

    D)  8

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: In fee, atoms are present at the eight corners of cube and at the centre of each face. \[\therefore \] Number of atoms present in fee crystal  = \[\left( \begin{align}   & No.\text{ }of\text{ }atoms\text{ }at \\  & corners \\  & + \\  & Contribution \\  & of\text{ }each\text{ }atom \\ \end{align} \right)+\left( \begin{align}   & No.\text{ }of\text{ }atoms \\  & present\text{ }at\text{ }faces \\  & + \\  & Contribution\text{ }by \\  & each\text{ }atom \\ \end{align} \right)\] \[\therefore \] \[=\left( 8\times \frac{1}{8} \right)+\left( 6\times \frac{1}{2} \right)\] = 1 + 3 = 4
