2. Amongst the 14 Bravais Lattices there are four belonging to the Orthorhombic crystal system: Primitive (P, simple), Face Centered (F), Body Centered (I) and Base Centered (C). In contrast to this the Cubic Crystal System has only three Bravais Lattices: Primitive (simple), Face Centered and Body Centered, while the Tetragonal System possesses only two Bravais Lattices: Primitive (simple) and Body Centered. < (a) Explain in detail and with the aid of diagrams the absence of the C type Bravais lattice for the Cubic System. < (b) Explain in detail and with the aid of diagrams the absence of the C and F type lattices in the Tetragonal system. < (c) Explain why we cannot use similar logic to eliminate the C and F Bravais Lattices for the orthorhombic system? 2.
