Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a cubic crystal system, when unit cells stack together, each corner of a unit cell is shared by eight different unit cells. This is because each corner is at the intersection of three faces from three different unit cells in each of the three dimensions (length, width, and height), making a total of eight unit cells sharing that corner.
