Detailed Solution
In a C.C,P array, number of tetrahedral voids is twice the number of atoms i.e.2 Z. T.H.V = 2× ZIn C.C.P arrangement lattice points are 4 and tetrahedral voids are 8.Y- forms-ccp/or fccX-occupy 2/3rd of Tetrahedral voidsNumber of Y-atoms=4 Number of X-atoms =23×8 =163 ( Number of tetrahedral voids are=8)Y : X =4 : 163 = 3 : 4 ⇒ Y3X4 OR X4Y3
