In a compound, atoms A occupy 3//4 of the tetrahedral voids and atoms B from ccp lattice. The empirical formula of the compound is

In the spinel structur, oxides ions are cubical-closet packed whereas 1/8th of tetrahedral voids are occupied by A^(2+) cation and 1/2 of octahedral voids are occupied by B^(+) cations. The general formula of the compound having spinel structure is:

In HCP or CCP constituent particles occupy 74% of the available space. The remaining space (26%) in between the spheres remains unoccupied and is called interstitial voids or holes. Considering the close packing arrangement, each sphere in the second layer rests on the hollow space of the first layer, touching each other. The void created is called tetrahedral void. If R is the radius of the spheres in the close packed arrangement then, R (radius of tetrahedral void) = 0.225 R In a close packing arrangement, the interstitial void formed by the combination of two triangular voids of the first and second layer is called octahedral coid. Thus, double triangular void is surrounded by six spheres. The centre of these spheres on joining, forms octahedron. If R is the radius of the sphere. in a close packed arrangement then, R (radius of octahedral void = 0.414 R). In the spinel structure, oxide ions are cubic close packed whereas 1/8th of tetrahedral voids are occupied by A^(2+) cations and 1/2 of octahedral voids are occupied by B^(3+) cations. The general formula of the compound having spinel structure is

In a solid, oxide ions are arrnged in ccp, cations A occupy A occupy (1/8)^th of the tetrahedral voids and cation B occupy (1/4)^(th) of the octahedral voids. The formula of the compound is:

A solid crystal is composed of X, Y and Z atoms. Y atoms are occupying 50% of octahedral voids, whereas X atoms are occupying the 100% tetrahedral voids while Z atoms occupy CCP arrangement. The formula of the compound is:
