There is no formula for that. It can be any height. The fact that it is hexagonal has nothing to do with it.
A hexagon is a 2-dimensional shape. A "structure" implies a 3-dimensional shape but you have not specified whether it is a hexagonal pyramid, a hexagonal prism or some other shape that is [partly] based on a hexagon. Without that information it is not possible to give a more helpful answer.
Graphite is an example of a hexagonal crystal. Beryl also forms a six sided crystal.Magnesium exhibits close packed hexagonal crystal structure.

Another way of describing the arrangement of atoms is by identifying layers. In the hexagonal close pack, the base layer consists of six atoms in a hexagon around a central atom. The next layer is the same, but it is stacked above the first layer by having the atoms nestle in the spaces between atoms. The third layer is like the first, and so on. This structure allows the atoms to fill the available volume very effectively, much more so than the simple cubic structure. This is why very few atoms form solids with simple cubic unit cells but very many have the hexagonal close pack structure. cobalt is an example of a hexagonal close pack solid.
Corundum ( (Al_2O_3) ) is hexagonal in crystal structure.
Beryllium's crystal structure is hexagonal.
Yes, both diamond and graphite have a crystal structure. Diamond has a cubic crystal structure, while graphite has a hexagonal crystal structure.

Curium has a double hexagonal close packed crystalline structure.
Magnesium has a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) crystalline structure. In this structure, the magnesium atoms are closely packed in layers, forming a hexagonal pattern. This arrangement gives magnesium its characteristic properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio and good thermal conductivity.
Yes, zinc is a pure metal that adopts a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal structure at room temperature. In its solid form, zinc atoms are arranged in a close-packed hexagonal lattice structure, making it an example of a pure metal with HCP arrangements.
Yes, quartz belongs to the hexagonal crystal system, meaning that its crystal structure has six-fold symmetry.
The crystalline structure of sodium chloride is face centered cubic.The crystalline structure of water is hexagonal.
Hydrogen gas (H2) does not exhibit a crystal structure at standard conditions because it is a gas composed of diatomic molecules. In order for hydrogen to form a crystal structure, it needs to be in a solid form, such as solid hydrogen which exhibits different crystal structures depending on the temperature and pressure conditions.
a center faced cubic hexagonal closed pack structure focused in the minds eye is time travel or invention of the tartis.
Cobalt typically forms crystals with a hexagonal close-packed structure.
