In antifluorite structure, 50% of TVs are occupied by anion.

In fluorite structure, 100% of TVs are occupied by cations.

In the fluorite structure, the coordination number of cation is:

Assertion : An important feature of fluorite structure is that cations being large ib size occupy FC C lattice points, the formula unit AB_(2) (A cation, B anion) Reason: There are 6 cations and 12 anions per FC C unit cell of the flucrite structure

In a normal spinel structure , O^(2-) ions form fcc packing and 1/8 of the tetrahedral sites are occupied by divalent metal , A^(2+) ions and half of the octahedral sites are occupied by trivalent metal B^(3+) ions, what is the ratio of tetrahedral/octahedral sites : (i) occupied in spinel structure (ii) not occupied in spinel structure .
