Hi the question is as follows:

What is the coordination No. for the holes on the centre of each face in a BCC unit Cell. I Do not understand the concept so an explanation would be much helpful.

Thanks,

Join center of face to the closest atoms in the vertices  and centers of two adjoined unit cells.
