If Agl crystallises in zinc blende structure with `I^(-)` ions at lattice points. What fraction of tetrahedral voids is occupied by `Ag^(+)` ionsA. 0.25B. 0.5C. 1D. 0.75

Answer» Correct Answer - B
In Agl crystal, number of `Ag^(+)` ions is equal to `I^(-)` ions. However, the number of tetrahedral voids are twice the number of atoms forming the cubic lattice.
`therefore` Number of tetrahedral voids occupied by `Ag^(+)` ion =50%
