If a solid `A^(o+)B^(ɵ)` having `ZnS` Structure is heated so that the ions along two of the axis passing throgh the face centre particles are lost and bivalent ion `(Z)` enters herre to maintain the electrical neutrality, so that the new formula unit becomes `A_(x)B_(y)Z_(c)`, report the value of `x + y + c`.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the changes in the solid structure when it is heated and how the introduction of the bivalent ion \( Z^{2+} \) affects the overall composition. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Initial Structure The solid \( A^{+}B^{-} \) has a ZnS structure. In this structure: - Each unit cell contains 4 \( A^{+} \) ions and 4 \( B^{-} \) ions. - The \( B^{-} \) ions are located at the face centers and corners of the unit cell. ### Step 2: Identify the Loss of Ions When the solid is heated, ions along two of the axes passing through the face center particles are lost. This means: - 2 \( B^{-} \) ions are removed from the face centers (1 from each of the 2 face centers). ### Step 3: Calculate Remaining Ions After losing 2 \( B^{-} \) ions: - The number of \( B^{-} \) ions left = Initial \( B^{-} \) ions - Lost \( B^{-} \) ions - Remaining \( B^{-} \) ions = \( 4 - 2 = 2 \) ### Step 4: Introduce the Bivalent Ion To maintain electrical neutrality, a bivalent ion \( Z^{2+} \) enters the structure. Since 2 \( B^{-} \) ions were lost, we need 1 \( Z^{2+} \) ion to balance the charge: - The relationship is \( 2B^{-} = 1Z^{2+} \). ### Step 5: Write the New Formula The new formula unit is \( A_{x}B_{y}Z_{c} \). From our calculations: - \( x = 4 \) (number of \( A^{+} \) ions remains the same) - \( y = 2 \) (remaining \( B^{-} \) ions) - \( c = 1 \) (number of \( Z^{2+} \) ions) ### Step 6: Calculate \( x + y + c \) Now, we sum the values: \[ x + y + c = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 \] ### Final Answer The value of \( x + y + c \) is \( 7 \). ---
