Difference between Locating tetrahedral Voids and Locating Octahedral Voids
Locating tetrahedral Voids: |
Locating Octahedral Voids |
Locating tetrahedral voids are the unoccupied empty spaces Which are present in a substance having a tetrahedral system.
|
Locating octahedral voids Are those Occupied empty spaces present in substance having an octahedral crystal system. |
Locating tetrahedral voids Are Found in those substances Which have an tetrahedral Arrangements in their crystal system. | Locating octahedral voids Are found in those substance Which have an octahedral arrangement in their crystal system. |
locating tetrahedral voids can be observed in the edges of the unit cell. | Locating octahedral voids can be observed in the centre of the unit cell. |
Coordination number of the tetrahedral voids is four. | Coordination number of the octahedral voids is six. |
