Students have asked these similar questions
1. Why does a metal generally have a higher electrical conductivity than a ceramic?
2. Give 2 reasons why fluorine has the highest electronegativity of any element.
3. Why does ice have a lower density than liquid water?
4. Why do FCC and HCP have identical atomic packing factors (0.74) if they have different
crystal structures?
5. Why are Pearson symbols not sufficient to precisely describe all crystal structures?
1. Is there a difference in packing (coordination number) between these two types (FCC and HCP) of structures?
2. Look at the two structures. A small difference in arrangement of atoms causes a dramatic difference in the properties of FCC ductile metals and HCP brittle metals. Can you see it? Try to draw the differences (You can draw the 3-layers separately):
