A forms ccp lattice `B` occupy half of the octahedral voids and `O` occupy all the tetrahedral voids. Calculate formula-

A

`A_(4)B_(2)O`

B

`A_(2)BO_(4)`

C

`AB_(2)O_(4)`

D

`A_(2)B_(2)O`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let number of B atoms = N
Number of atoms of A = `(N)/(2)`
Number of oxygen atoms = 2n
A : B : O
`(N)/(2) : N: 2N`
`(1)/(2) : 1 : 2 `
1: 2 : 4
`AB_(2) O_(4)` Is th formula
