A compound is formed by two elements Y and Z . The element Z forms ccp and atoms Y occupy 1/3 rd of tetrahedral voids. The formula of the compound is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Atoms on N from ccp, therefore, if the lattice points are n, then
No. of atoms of N=n
No. of oct voids =n
No. of td voids `=2n=2xx 1n//=2n//3`
`therefore` Formula of compound is `M:N`
2/3n:n
2n:3n
2:3
i.e, `M_(2)N_(3)`
