A

`ABO_(2)`

B

`A_(2)BO_(3)`

C

`AB_(2)O_(4)`

D

`A_(2)BO_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Number of oxide ions
`=(1)/(8)xx16` corners `+(1)/(2)xx12` face-centres=8
Number of `A^(2+)` ions present in tetrahedral void =2
Number of `B^(3+)` ions =1 (at body-centre)`+(1)/(4)xx12` (at edge-centres)=4
`therefore` Formula of compound `=AB_(2)O_(4)`
