Face Centered Cubic Structure The face centered cubic arrangements has fourteen(14) atoms The atom are arranged at the corners and center of each face of the cell
Face Centered Cubic Structure Atoms are assumed to touch along face diagonals

Atomic packing factor(APF) It can be defined as the ratio between the volume of the basic atoms of the unit cell (which represent the volume of all atoms in one unit cell ) to the volume of the unit cell it self .
Atomic packing factor(APF)
Characteristics of FCC They are plastic and malleable. It,s stronger and denser than BCC. Atoms are arranged at the corners and center of each cube face of the cell .
Examples Metals with the FCC Structured include Aluminum copper nickel iron, gold silver
