Solids have a definite shape and fixed volume, liquids have no definite shape but fixed volume, gases, in whichever container they are kept, occupy the whole volume of the container and their molecules randomly move with very high speed. Crystalline solids have atomsionsmolecules arranged in regular, repeating patterns.

The symmetry of a periodic pattern of repeated motifs is the total set of symmetry operations allowed by that pattern let us apply a rotation of 90 degrees about the center point of the pattern which is thought to be indefinitely. The conventional unit cell chosen is usually bigger than the primitive cell in favor of preserving the symmetry of the bravais lattice. Basically, a unit cell is a box, and if we stack many unit cells, we get the total structure. Bravais lattice, atom positions, crystal directions and miller indices, description of crystal structures, close packed structures. A unit cell is a volume, when translated through some subset of the vectors of a bravais lattice, can fill up the whole space without voids or overlapping with itself. Finally, the concept of the unit cell is presented. In a crystal structure, we can think about the unit cells, which are the smallest repeating unit of the structure.

The present chapter overviews the crystalline structure of solids beginning with a summary of the historical development of our ideas on the atomic nature of matter. In one class, the atoms in a solid are set in an irregular manner, without any shortor longrange order in their atomic arrangement. The crystal structures are formed when a basis of atoms is attached. For an example on how to find the surface density of atoms on a particular crystal plane, refer to example 1.
