In Zinc blende , the percentage of tetrahedral voids occupied by `Zn^(2+)` ions is :

A

`25%`

B

`50 %`

C

`75 %`

D

`100 %`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In zinc blende , `S^(2-)` ions have ccp arrangement and `Zn^(2+)` ions occupy half , i.e., alternate tetrahedral voids.
