Why is there no face centered hexagonal lattice?
Simple reason - It violates the cubic symmetry. To see it from another perspective - Base centered cubic lattice is equivalent to a simple tetragonal lattice. Draw two unit cells adjacent to each other. Then connect the base center points to the corener points which are shared by these two unit cells. Then connect the two base centered point in each unit cell. Now you have a simple tetragonal lattice. Simple tetragonal lattice has one lattice point per unit cell compared to two lattice point per unit cell of base centered lattice. Always the lower lattice point lattice is considered for a given symmetry. Because of symmetry breaking, the symmetry of base centered cubic lattice is same as tetragonal lattice.
What is the meaning of lattice dissociation?
The ionic compounds exist as solid crystals or Lattice, when such compounds are added to water crystals break down into ions ,it is dissociation (breaking) of lattice.
What is lattice point?
Each lattice point represents the position where one constituent particle of the solid which may be a atom, ion or molecule may exist It may not be only ion or molecule always A lattice is a synonym for "frame work" for a crystalline structure
How many valence electrons does magnesium sulfate have?
As magnesium sulfate is an ionic compound, it creates an ionic lattice. Therefore it doesn't exist as seperate molecules.

How many faces does a tetragonal prism have?
A tetragonal prism is a cuboid and so has 6 faces.
Is a square a tetragonal or a tetrahedron?
A tetragonal is square shaped whereas a tetrahedron is a triangular based pyramid.
What is the difference between a tetragonal crystal and a cubic crystal?

What is tetragonal hybridization?
Sp3
Would copper exist as a lattice form or molecules?
It is a solid metal and therefore latice form.
