AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the percentage of unoccupied sites in the unit cell of AgCl. Let's go through the steps systematically. ### Step 1: Understand the structure of AgCl AgCl has the same structure as NaCl, which is a face-centered cubic (FCC) structure. In this structure: - Chloride ions (Cl⁻) occupy the corners and face centers of the cube. - Silver ions (Ag⁺) occupy the octahedral voids. ### Step 2: Determine the number of atoms in the unit cell ...
