In a cubic,`A` atoms are present on alternative corners, `B` atoms are present on alternate faces, and `C` atoms are present on alternalte edges and body centred of the cube. The simplest formula of the compound is

A

`ABC_(4)`

B

`A_(2)BC_(4)`

C

`AB_(2)C_(4)`

D

`ABC_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


No. of A atoms `=(1)/(8)xx4=(1)/(2) " " ` No. of A atoms `=(1)/(2)xx2=1 " " ` No. of A atoms `= ((1)/(4)xx4)+(1xx1) = 2`
The simplest formula is : `AB_(2)C_(4)`
