 In a crystalline solid, the atoms A and B are arranged as follows : (a) Atoms A are arranged in ccp array. (b) Atoms B occupy all the octahedral voids and half of the tetrahedral voids. What is the formula of the compound ?

Answer»

 No. of A (ccp) = 4

 No. of B = octahedral voids + Tetrahedral/2

=4+8/2

=4

A : B        therefore, formula of the compound is AB2 

4 :

1 : 2

 AB2
