Which of the following relations are correct for the cubic crystal:brbrA. $a = b \neq c$brB. $a = b = c$brC. $\alpha= \beta = \gamma=90$brD. $\alpha \neq \beta = \gamma = 90$brbrChoose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct answer is
B and C only

The question relates to the characteristics of crystal systems, specifically focusing on cubic crystals. To determine the correct relations, let's review the properties of cubic crystals:

  1. Cubic Crystal System: A cubic crystal is characterized by the following properties:
    • The length of the unit cell edges is equal: a = b = c.
    • The angles between the edges are all right angles: \alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90^{\circ}.
  2. Examining the Options:
    • Option A: a = b \neq c is incorrect for cubic systems, as all edge lengths should be equal.
    • Option B: a = b = c matches the property of cubic crystals that the unit cell edges are equal.
    • Option C: \alpha = \beta = \gamma = 90^{\circ} is correct, as all angles in a cubic crystal are 90 degrees.
    • Option D: \alpha \neq \beta = \gamma = 90^{\circ} is incorrect as it contradicts the property of equal angles (90 degrees) for cubic crystals.

Therefore, the correct properties of a cubic crystal are reflected in Options B and C, making the correct answer B and C only.
