If the anions (A) form hexagonal closest packing and cations (C) occupy only 2/3 octahedral voids in it. Then the general formula of the compound is

A

AB

B

`A_3B_2`

C

`A_2B`

D

`AB_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
No of octahedral voids in hcp=6
so formula `=A_6B_4=A_3B_2`
