Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.18E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the hexagonal unit cell is called hexagonal even though it is not a six-sided figure is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A unit cell of the crystal is the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms present in the crystal. The unit cell is the smallest and simplest unit of the crystal which on repetition forms an entire crystal. Unit cell can be a cubic unit cell or hexagonal unit cell. The classification of a unit cell depends on the lattice site occupied by the atoms.

Make a table for comparison between the interior angles of the seven (7) unit cells and explain.There are seven types of unit cells: (1) simple cubic, (2) tetragonal, (3) orthorhombic, (4) rhombohedral, (5) monoclinic, (6) triclinic, and (7) hexagonal.
Many elements crystalize with a unit cell that is hexagonally shaped (6 sided). The calculations of the unit cell dimension are not significantly more complicated than those for cubic unit cells. A hexagonal unit cell is shown below.The cell dimension "a" is twice the radius (r) of the atom. 2r=a. For most elements the dimension "c" is approximately 1.633×"a".The element technetium (Tc) crystallizes with a Simple Hexagonal unit cell. The density of a technetium is 11.5 g/cm3. Use this information to calculate the metallic radius of technetium in picometers (pm). 1 pm = 1×10−12 meters. You may assume that the dimension c=1.633·a
