Cubic system has how many distinct Bravais lattices?
- 1
- 2
- 3 (simple, body-centred, face-centred)
- 4
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: C. 3 (simple, body-centred, face-centred)
**Cubic Bravais lattices:** simple cubic (sc), body-centred cubic (bcc), and face-centred cubic (fcc).
All three have $a = b = c$ and $\alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90°$.
