Becuase 5-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold or any other higher-fold crystal's structure (shape) is based on the geometric arrangement of atoms, so can not completely fill the space.

What is a rotation of symmetry?

Sometimes called rotation symmetry, or symmetry of rotation. If you have an object that can be turned through a certain angle (like rotating a cube through 90o) and then it looks identical, then that object has a certain symmetry under rotation. If you can turn it through any angle, like a cylinder, then it has rotation (or rotational) symmetry.

What are the four properties of a cube?

A cube has four key properties: it has six equal square faces, twelve equal edges, and eight vertices. All internal angles of a cube are right angles (90 degrees). Additionally, the cube exhibits symmetry, with rotational and reflective symmetry across its axes. Lastly, the volume of a cube can be calculated using the formula ( V = s^3 ), where ( s ) is the length of one side.

What are the symmetries of a cube?

From the perspective of a symmetry group, a cube has 48 symmetries total. They include:24 rotational symmetries: the identity6 90° rotations about axes through the centers of opposite faces3 180° rotations about the same axes8 120° rotations about the space diagonals connecting opposite vertices6 180° rotations about axes through the centers of opposite edges24 reflection symmetries that involve one of the above rotations, followed (or, equivalently) preceded by the same reflection
