The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the arrangement of atoms in a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice, we need to analyze the positions of the atoms and voids specified in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the FCC Lattice Structure**: - In an FCC lattice, atoms are located at the corners and the centers of each face of the cube. - Specifically, there are 8 corner atoms and 6 face-centered atoms. 2. **Identifying Atom Positions**: - According to the problem: - A atoms are located at the corners of the cube. - B atoms are located at the face centers. - C atoms are located in the octahedral voids (which are at the body center and edge centers). - D atoms are located in the tetrahedral voids (which are located along the body diagonals). 3. **Analyzing the Body Diagonal**: - The body diagonal of the cube connects two opposite corners and passes through the body center. - In an FCC lattice, the body diagonal contains: - 2 corner atoms (A) at the ends of the diagonal. - 1 octahedral void (C) at the body center. - 2 tetrahedral voids (D) along the body diagonal. 4. **Counting Atoms on the Body Diagonal**: - Therefore, along the body diagonal, we have: - 2 A atoms (from the corners), - 1 C atom (from the octahedral void at the body center), - 2 D atoms (from the tetrahedral voids). 5. **Final Composition of the Body Diagonal**: - The total composition of the body diagonal is: - 2 A + 1 C + 2 D. ### Conclusion: Thus, the body diagonal contains **2 A atoms, 1 C atom, and 2 D atoms**. ### Answer: The body diagonal contains: **2A, C, and 2D**. ---
