The "OLIVINE" series of minerals consists of crystal in which Fe^(2+) and Mg^(2+) ions may substitute for each other causing susbstitutional impurity defects without changing the volume of unit cell. In "OLIVINE" series of minerals, O^(2-) ions exist as fcc with Si^(4+) occupying one-fourth of OVs and divalent metal ions occupying one-fourth of OVs and divalent metal ions occupying one-fourth of TVs . The density of "forsterite" (magnesium silicate) is 3.21 g cm^(-3) land that of "fayalite" (ferrous silicate) is 4.34 g cm^(-3) . If in "forsterite mineral" bivalent Mg^(2+) ions are to be replaced by unipositive Na^(o+) ions, and if Na^(o+) ions are occupying half of TV_(s) in fcc lattice, the arrangement of rest of the constituents is kept same, then the formula of the new solid is:

Assertion (A) : In the rock salt type structure, all the OV_(s) are occupied by Na^(o+) ions. Reason (R ) : Number of OV_(s) = Number of Cl^(ɵ) ions in the packing.
