The ratio of closed packed atoms to tetrahedral holes in cubic close packing is `:`

A

`1:1`

B

`1:2`

C

`1:3`

D

`2:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Every constituent has two tetrahedral voids .
ccp lattice , number of atoms `=8xx1/8+6xx1/2=4`
`therefore " Tetrahedral void " =4xx2=8`
Thus , ratio = 4 : 8 = 1 : 2
