Understand the Problem

The question is asking for the number of atoms present in a body-centered cubic (BCC) unit cell, which is a type of crystal structure used in materials science and solid-state physics.

Answer

2 atoms

The final answer is 2 atoms.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is 2 atoms.

More Information

In a body-centered cubic (BCC) unit cell, there is one atom at the center and 1/8 of an atom at each of the eight corners. Therefore, the total number of atoms per unit cell is 2 (1 from the center + 1 from the corners).
