What is the significance of the family of planes in crystallography and how are they represented using Miller indices?

In crystallography, the family of planes refers to a group of crystal planes that share similar characteristics. These planes play a crucial role in determining the structure and properties of crystals. Miller indices are used to represent these planes in crystallography, providing a standardized way to describe their orientation and spacing within the crystal lattice. By understanding the family of planes and their Miller indices, scientists can analyze and predict the behavior of crystals in various applications.


What was the methods Watson and crick used to determine the structure of DNA?

Watson and Crick used X-ray crystallography data from Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, along with model building and trial-and-error, to determine the double helix structure of DNA. They also relied on the existing knowledge of base pairing and chemical composition of DNA to support their model.
