Which of the following statements about crystal systems are correct?

  1. AThere are seven Bravais lattices in total.
  2. BIn a trigonal (rhombohedral) system and .
  3. CIn a monoclinic system , and .
  4. DIn a hexagonal system , and .

Answer: B, C, D

There are seven crystal systems but fourteen Bravais lattices, so the first statement is false. The three other statements give the correct edge and angle relations of trigonal, monoclinic and hexagonal systems.
