Question
In a solid AB having the NaCl structure, ′A′ atom occupies the corners of the cubic unit cell. If all the face-centred atoms along one axis are removed, then the resultant stoichiometry of the solid is :
Options
A.AB2
B.A2B
C.A4B3
D.A3B4
Solution
Na in NaCl has 8 corner and 6 face atoms. If we remove face centred atom of one axis, two face atoms are removed. Thus A is at 8 corner and B is at 4 faces.
∴ A =
= 1 and B = 
= 2
Thus formula is AB2
∴ A =
= 1 and B = = 2Thus formula is AB2
