In HCP ; Packing efficiency:
Atoms occupy:74%
Empty space(voids): 28%
In BCC; Packing efficiency:
Atoms occupy: 68%
Empty space(voids): 32%
According to the given condition if the total number of atoms per unit cell in a hcp structure and a bcc structure get halved. Then packing efficiency in HCP and BCC respectively given as:
In HCP ; Packing efficiency:
Atoms occupy: 74/2 = 37%
Empty space(voids): (100 - 37) = 63%
In BCC; Packing efficiency:
Atoms occupy: 68/2 = 34%
Empty space(voids): (100 - 34) = 66%
Then new ratio of their voids = 63%/66% = 21/22
