A solid crystal is composed of X, Y and ...

A solid crystal is composed of X, Y and Z atoms. Y atoms are occupying `50%` of octahedral voids, whereas X atoms are occupying the `100%` tetrahedral voids while Z atoms occupy CCP arrangement. The formula of the compound is:

A

`X_(8) Y_(2)Z_(4)`

B

`X_(5)Y_(10)Z_(8)`

C

`X_(4)YZ_(2)`

D

`X_(10)Y_(4)Z_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A
No. of Z-atoms `=4`
No. of Y-atoms `=2`
No. of X-atoms `=8`
Formula of Compound is : `X_(8)Y_(2)Z_(4)`
