Which type of crystal system is also known as a cubic,includes diamonds,and has three axes of symmetry that are at right angles to eachother?

Answer 1

Isometric is the crystal system.

Answer 2

Answer: Isometric system

Explanation: Isometric or Cubic system is the simplest of all the crystallographic system. It is comprised of three crystallographic axes of same length which are all perpendicular to one another. The shape of its unit cell is cube shaped. For example, diamond, garnet and gold.

It contains three kinds of symmetry axes, such as-

• Four 3-fold axes
• Three 4-fold axes
• Six 2-fold axes.
