A solid is made up of two elements P and Q , Atoms Q are in ccp arrangement while atoms P occupy all the tetrahdral sites. What is the formual of the compound ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1/3, 1/9
Suppose number of atoms Q =n
The number of tetrahedral sites = 2n
Number of atoms P =2n
Ratio P : Q = 2n : n =2 :1 , i.e, formula is ` P_(2) Q`
