In a cubic close packed structure (ccp) ...

In a cubic close packed structure (ccp) of mixed oxides, it is found that lattice has `O^(2-)` ions and one half of the octahedral voids are occupied by trivalent cations `(A^(3+))` and one-eighth of the tetrahedral voids are occupied by divalent cations `(B^(2+))`. Derive the formula of the mixed oxide.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that there are two tetrahedral voids and one octahedral void per ion in the given arrangement.
Therefore,
The no. of octahedral voids per ion in lattice = 1
No. of trivalent cations `(A^(3+))=1xx1//2=1//2`
The no. of tetrahedral voids per ion in lattice = 2
No. of divalent cations `(B^(2+))=2xx1//8=1//4`
The formula of mixed oxide is `A_(1//2)B_(1//4)O` or `A_(2)BO_(4)`
