    On the basis of different possible values of \[\alpha ,\,\,\beta \,\,and\,\,\gamma \]and y and different axial distances or edge lengths a, b and c following seven types of three dimensional primitive cells or crystal systems. Which of the following represent triclinic crystal?

    A)  \[a=b=c,\,\,\alpha =\beta =\gamma =90{}^\circ \]

    B)  \[a\ne b=c,\,\,\alpha \ne \beta =\gamma =90{}^\circ \]

    C)  \[a\ne b\ne c,\,\,\alpha \ne \beta \ne \gamma =90{}^\circ \]

    D)  \[a\ne b\ne c,\,\,\alpha =\beta =\gamma \ne 90{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    In triclinic system, the crystal is described by vectors of unequal length, as in the orthorhombic system. Triclinic crystal is a highly dissymmetric crystal having \[a\ne b\ne c,\,\,\alpha \ne \beta \ne \gamma \,90\].
