    Ans : null () Simple cubic

    In a simple cubic lattice, the particles are located only at the corners of the cube and touch each other along the edge.



    Let the edge length of the cube be ‘a’ and the radius of each particle be r.

    So, we can write:

    a = 2r

    Now, volume of the cubic unit cell = a3

    = (2r)3

    = 8r3

    We know that the number of particles per unit cell is 1.

    Therefore, volume of the occupied unit cell

    Hence, packing efficiency
