A compound `M_(p)X_(q)` has cubic close packing `(ccp)` arrangement of `X`. Its unit cell structure is shown below. The empirical formula of the compound is

A

MX

B

`MX_(2)`

C

`M_(2)X`

D

`M_(5)X_(14)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2
`M=4xx(1)/(8)+1xx1=(3)/(2),X=8xx(1)/(8)+6xx(1)/(2)=3`
`therefore` formula `=(M_(3))/(2)X_(3) therefore M_(3)X_(6)=MX_(2)`
