The lattice points of a crystal of hydrogen iodide are occupied by :

A

HI molecules

B

H atoms and I atoms

C

`H^(+)` cations and anions

D

`H_(2)` molecules and I2 molecules

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since, HI is a covalent molecule and crystallizes in face centred cubic (fcc) structure, HI molecules are present at the lattice points of the crystal.
