    Q1. What is the typical crystal structure of NaCl?

    • A) Face-Centered Cubic (FCC)
    • B) Body-Centered Cubic (BCC)
    • C) Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP)
    • D) Diamond Cubic

    Answer: Face-Centered Cubic (FCC)

    Explanation: NaCl has a face-centered cubic lattice with a basis of two atoms, Na and Cl, at (0,0,0) and (1/2, 1/2, 1/2).
