(b) hep and ccp
Explanation:
Packing efficiency: It is the percentage of total filled space by particles
Packing efficiency = Volume occupied by four spheres in the unit cell/ Total volume of unit cell x 100
Since, packing efficiency for hep or ccp is calculated to be 74% which is maximum among all type of crystals.
