An end-centered tetragonal Bravais lattice cannot exist because it would violate the constraints of translational symmetry required for a Bravais lattice. In a tetragonal lattice, the unit cell must have four sides of equal length and right angles, which cannot be maintained if an end-centered arrangement is introduced.

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.
How many bravais lattices exist?
There are 14 Bravais lattices in 3D space, which are categorized into 7 crystal systems based on the lattice parameters and symmetry. Each lattice type represents a unique way in which points can be arranged in space to form a crystal structure.
Whybcc tetragonal lattice does not exist?
A tetragonal lattice does exist in crystallography, characterized by two equal lattice parameters in the plane perpendicular to the principal axis. However, it is not as common as other crystal systems like cubic or hexagonal due to its symmetry properties. When tetragonal crystals do form, they often undergo phase transitions to more stable structures like cubic.
What are bravais 14 unit cells?
It's not precisely clear what you mean. If you mean "what are the 14 3-dimensional Bravais lattices", then you'd be better served by looking in a crystallography book with diagrams. The Wikipedia page about Bravais lattices also shows them.
What is crystallattice?
When the crystal systems are combined with the various possible lattice centerings, we arrive at the Bravais lattices. They describe the geometric arrangement of the lattice points, and thereby the translational symmetry of the crystal. In three dimensions, there are 14 unique Bravais lattices which are distinct from one another in the translational symmetry they contain. All crystalline materials recognized until now (not including quasicrystals) fit in one of these arrangements. The fourteen three-dimensional lattices, classified by crystal system, are shown to the right. The Bravais lattices are sometimes referred to as space lattices.=The crystal structure consists of the same group of atoms, the basis, positioned around each and every lattice point. This group of atoms therefore repeats indefinitely in three dimensions according to the arrangement of one of the 14 Bravais lattices. The characteristic rotation and mirror symmetries of the group of atoms, or unit cell, is described by its crystallographic point group.=

Is the side centered cube a bravais lattice?
Hi, No the side centered lattice is not a Bravais Lattice as the lattice doesn't look the same from an atom on the corner of the cube and an atom in the middle of a vertical edge of the cube (they don't even have the same number of neighbors). In fact, the side centered lattice is a simple cubic lattice with a basis of two atoms.

Why Bravais lattices are 14 in number?
Bravais lattices are classified based on their lattice symmetries, leading to 14 possible combinations of translational and rotational symmetries. These 14 Bravais lattices represent all possible ways in which a lattice can be arranged in 3D space while maintaining translational periodicity. Each Bravais lattice has unique characteristics that define its geometric arrangement.
What is space lattice?
Space lattice is a three-dimensional geometric arrangement of the atoms or molecules or ions composing a crystal. Space lattice is also known as crystal lattice or Bravais lattice.

Why is the honey comb not a bravais lattice?
If you take a look at one segment of the honeycomb e.g. -<_>- you can see that lattice points at -o< and >o- segments do not have the same "neighbours". It is important to notice that both the arrangement and orientation have to be the same at any point in Bravais lattice. For more detail see Ashcroft - Solid State Physics (pg. 64).
How many kinds of space lattices are possible in a crystal?
There are 14 possible types of Bravais lattices in 3D space, which serve as the basis for categorizing crystal structures. These are further subdivided into primitive, body-centered, face-centered, and base-centered structures based on the lattice points within the unit cell.
What is the lattice constant of body-centered cubic (BCC) structure?
The lattice constant of a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure is approximately 0.356 nm.
