They are two of the cubic structures for crystals with atoms linked by ionic or covalent bonds. They are also known as BCC and FCC.
Table salt, NaCl, and Silicon, for example, assume a FCC structure.

What type of crystalline solid can be found in metal atoms?
The crystalline structure of metals is face-centered cubic or body-centered cubic.
Which type of alloy structure has metal atoms of different sizes?
Its one of these four body centered cubic substitutional face centered cubic interstitial
What is the crystal structure of the element argon?
face centered cubic
What type of crystal structure does argon have?
Argon has a face-centered cubic structure.
Why gold is more ductile than sodium?
Both gold and sodium are metals. Gold has face centred cubic crystal structure, sodium has body centered cubic structure. A face centred cubic structure allows an easy movement of dislocations in the lattice. Gold is extraordinarily ductile.
What is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic?
The arrangement of atoms or ions in a crystal.
What type of crystalline solid can be found in metal atoms?
The crystalline structure of metals is face-centered cubic or body-centered cubic.
Simple cubic body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic unit cells all have the same shape How are they different?
They differ in the number of atoms within the unit cell. Body-centered contains two atoms, face centered contains four. Images online or in textbooks show this best.
Which type of alloy structure has metal atoms of different sizes?
Its one of these four body centered cubic substitutional face centered cubic interstitial
What are the three differences packing arrangements found in metallic crystals?
Most metals and alloys crystallize in one of three very common structures: body-centered cubic (bcc), Li is an example of bcc , hexagonal close packed (hcp) Au is an example of hcp, or cubic close packed (ccp, also called face centered cubic, fcc) Ag is an example of fcg. The yield strength of a "perfect" single crystal of pure Al is ca. 10^6 psi.
What type of cubic cell in NaCl?
The crystal structure is face centered cubic.
How NaCl crystallise?
This is face-centered cubic crystallization.
What is a face centered cubic crystal?
A face-centered cubic unit cell is a cube. All sides are the same length and all face perpendicular to each other, with an atom at each corner and an atom in the middle of each face of the cell.
What is a face-centered cubic lattice?
face centred cubic lattice is one in which there a atoms at the each edge and at the centre of each face
What defines why nacl has a face centered cubic unit cell while cscl is body centered cub?
diffrent radius ratios
How many neighbors does a face-centered cubic crystal have?
12
Why do crystals have salt?
Crystals of salt are face-cubic centered.
