Q. Which has no rotation of symmetry?

A) Hexagonal
B) Orthorhombic
C) Cubic
D) Triclinic
Explanation

(d)
In triclinic lattice, the eight lattice points are located, one each at the corners of triclinic lattice. Also $a \neq b \neq c$ and $\alpha \neq \beta \neq \gamma.$ There is no planes and no axes. Thus, triclinic lattice has no rotation of symmetry.
