Questions
Atoms ‘X’ occupy corners and face centres of a cubic unit cell. Atoms ‘Y’ occupy edge centres and body centre. If one atom from corners,four atoms from edge centres and one atom from body centre are missing the formula of the compound would be
detailed solution
Correct option is C
‘X’ occupies 7 corners (1 atom of ‘X’ are missing from corners) and 6 face centres.∴effective number of atoms of ‘X’ = 7×18+6×12=318‘Y’ occupies 8 edge centres (4 atoms of ‘Y’ are missing from edge centres)∴effective number of atoms of ‘Y’ = 8×14=84Ratio of atoms of ‘X’ to ‘Y’ =318:84=31 : 16Formula of the compound = X31Y16Talk to our academic expert!
