Depending upon the shape of the unit cells, the grouping of the crystals is done in seven systems known as crystallographic systems.

Type

Lattice Constants Example
Cubic a=b=c Ag, Li, Nacl
Orthorhombic a!=b!=c HgCl2
Monoclinic a!=b!=c KClO3
Triclinic a!=b!=c K2Cr2O7
Hexagonal a=b!=c Quartz, Zn
Rhombohedral a=b=c Caco3
Tetragonal a=b!=c White tin
