Muddiest Points – Unit Cell

Muddiest Point 1: “Figuring how to find the properties of atoms (FD,BD,APF etc) Just a lot if info at once.”

Muddiest Point 2: “I am very confused on the last activity. I have no idea what just happened.”

Muddiest Point 3: “The calculations related to unit cells, APF,F a/e/ length etc.”
