Find the effective number of atoms in Body-centered cubic lattice?

Find the effective number of atoms in Body-centered cubic lattice? Correct Answer 2

In the BCC structure, there are eight atoms at every corner which contributes 1/8 part. => 1/8*8=1 Also, there is an atom in the center of the cube contributing to 1 atom. So, the total number of effective atoms 1+1=2.

Consider the following statements: 1. The quenching of steel results in an increase in wear resistance, strength and hardness. 2. By the process of case hardening, hard wearing resistant surface is produced on mild steel. This is an effective method for low carbon steels because they cannot be hardened by the process of quenching. 3.
