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

Suppose the atoms of N in the ccp = n, Number of tetrahedral voids = 2 n
As 1/3rd of the tetrahedral voids are occupied by atoms M, therefore, number of atoms `M = (2n)/(3)`
Ratio of `M:N = (2n)/(3): n = 2:3 ` Hence the formula is `N_(2)N_(2)` .
