A compound is formed by elements A and B . This crystallizes in the cubic structure where the A atoms are at the corners of the cube can B atoms are at the body centers. The simplest formula of the compound is

A

`A_(8)B_(4)`

B

`AB_(6)`

C

AB

D

`A_(6)B`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Atoms of A per unit of the cell =`8times1/8=1` Atoms of B per unit cell=1
`therefore` The simplest formula of the compound is AB
