About this document
Metallic Crystal Structures Analysis by Pok Thung is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes an experiment to model and compare the atomic packing, densities, and coordination numbers of four common metallic crystal structures: simple cubic (SC), face-centered cubic (FCC), body-centered cubic (BCC), and hexagonal close-packed (HCP). Students will build physical models of the unit cells using ping pong balls and tape to determine structural properties and compare to theoretical calculations. The goal is to identify which crystal structure copper takes on at room temperature b
