Question
In an arrangement of type ABABA... identical atoms of I layer A and III layer A are joined by a line passing through their centers. Suggest the correct statement.
Options
A.No void is found on the line
B.Only Tetrahedral voids are found on the line
C.Only octahedral voids are found on the line
D.Equal number of tetrahedral and octahedral voids are found on the line
Solution
Only tetrahedral, Since there is one tetrahedral voids just above the atom & one just below the atom.
