A solid is made of two element X and Z ....

A solid is made of two element `X` and `Z` .The atoms `Z` are in `C CP` arrangement while the atoms `X` occupy all the tetrahedral sites .What is the formula of the compound ?

A

XZ

B

`XZ_(2)`

C

`X_(2)Z`

D

`X_(2)Z_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
