To solve the problem, we need to determine the formula of the crystal after removing all the particles along a specified plane. The crystal is made up of particles A and B, where A forms a face-centered cubic (FCC) packing and B occupies all the octahedral voids. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding FCC Packing**: - In a face-centered cubic (FCC) structure, there are particles at the corners and at the face centers of the cube. - There are 8 corner atoms, each contributing \( \frac{1}{8} \) of an atom (total contribution from corners = \( 8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1 \)). - There are 6 face-centered atoms, each contributing \( \frac{1}{2} \) of an atom (total contribution from face centers = \( 6 \times \frac{1}{2} = 3 \)). ...
