Which among the following crystal lattices occupies all of the cubic holes by cations?
- A \(\mathrm{SrCl}_{2}\)
- B \(\mathrm{CaF}_{2}\)
- C \(\mathrm{CsCl}\)
- D \(\mathrm{UO}_{2}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{CsCl}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{CsCl}\)
Cations inhabited all of the cubic holes in \(\mathrm{CsCl}\) crystal lattices. A single atom in the cube's centre belongs to this unit cell, and the unit cell has only one body centre. As a result, the compound's formula is \(\mathrm{CsCl}\), which stands for body-centred cubic cell. Particles are present in the corners of the cube, as well as one particle in the centre of the body, in this sort of cell.
