A solid is made of two element P and Q. Atoms P are in ccp arrangement and atoms Q occupy all the octahedral voids and half of the tetrahedral voids, then the simplest formula of the compound is(a) PQ2 (b) P2Q (c) PQ (d) P2O2 |

Answer» Correct Option (a) PQ2 Explanation : Four atoms P contributes to one unit cell from ccp arrangement and 4 atoms Q from the all octahedral voids and 4 atoms Q from the half of the tetrahedral void contributes one unit cell. So, formula of solid is P4O8 so, the simplest formula of the solid is PQ2. |
