Assertion :- (A) the paking efficiency is maximum for the fcc struture .
Reason :- ( R) the coordination number is 2 in fcc structures.

A

Assertion and reason both are correct statements and Reason is correct explantion for Assertion .

B

Asserton and Reason both are correct statement but Reason is not correct explanation for assertion .

C

Assertion is correct statement but reason is worng statement .

D

Assertion is Wrong statement but Reason is correct statement .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
ASSertion and reason both correct statement but reasson is not the correct explation of Assertion
Correct reason is that packing efficiency is maximum for fcc structure because it consists of total four pe unit cell packing efficiency is maximum in fcc stucture which is equal to 74 %
