What is the difference between CUBIC SYSTEM and BRAVAIS LATTICE ?

please help soon . thank you .

Crystallographs have been able to divide 230 space groups into 32 point groups , 14 Bravais lattice and 7 basic crystal systems.

As the chart below depicts



These 14 Bravais lattice consists of different crystal systems with different lattice types.



Thus Cubic system is one of the Crystal system and it consists of 3 possible lattice arrangements i.e 3 bravais lattice.

This concept of space groups and crystal systems you will be studying in your higher classes.
