  1. Question 1

    Q1. The reciprocal lattice vector is

    • A) perpendicular to the lattice plane
    • B) parallel to the lattice plane
    • C) perpendicular to the real lattice vector
    • D) parallel to the real lattice vector

    Answer: perpendicular to the lattice plane

    Explanation: Reciprocal lattice vector is normal to the lattice plane, a property derived from the definition of reciprocal lattice.
