Q. 22. Percentages of free space in cubic close packed structure and in body centered packed structure are
respectively
30% and 26%
26% and 32%
32% and 48%
48% and 26%
SoI :
Packing efficiency of CCP and BCC structures are 74% and 68% respectively, so the % of free space in CCP and
BCC are 26% and 32% respectively.
