A cubic structure is formed where atoms of element \(X\) are occupied at corner of cube and also at face centers. Atoms of element \(Y\) are present at body center and at the edge centers. If all the atoms are removed along a plane passing through the middle of the cube (bisecting the four edges), the formula will become

  1. A \(X Y_2\)
  2. B \(X_4 Y_3\)
  3. C \(X Y\)
  4. D \(X_2 Y_3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(X Y\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

- \(=X\), at corners (cor) and face centre (fc) \(\mathbf{-}=Y\), at edge centre \((\mathrm{ec})\) and body centre \((\mathrm{bc})\) After removal, number of atoms ratio in the crystal, So, formula of the crystal will be \(X Y\).
