The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (C): 12.
In the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure, the coordination number is 12. As zinc (Zn) adopts the hcp structure, it has 12 nearest neighbors, with six located within the same plane, and three situated above and three below that plane.

- Consider the diameter of a spherical object being measured with the help of a Vernier Callipers. Suppose its 10 Vernier Scale Divisions (V.S.D.) are equal to its 9 Main Scale Divisions (M.S.D.). The least count in the M.S. is 0.1 cm and the zero of V.S. is at -0.1 cm when the jaws of Vernier callipers are closed. If the main scale reading for the diameter is \(M = 5\) cm and the number of coinciding vernier division is 8, the measured diameter after zero error correction, is:
