NEET Chemistry The Solid State / ठोस प्रावस्था Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - The Solid State

  • question_answer
    A solid has a structure in which 'W' atoms are located at the comers of a cubic lattice 'O' atoms at the centre of edges and Na atoms at the centre of the cube. The formula for the compound is

    A) \[N{{a}_{2}}W{{O}_{3}}\]    

    B) \[N{{a}_{2}}W{{O}_{2}}\]

    C) \[NaW{{O}_{2}}\]    

    D) \[NaW{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] In a unit cell, W atoms at the corner \[=\frac{1}{8}\times 8=1\] O-atoms at the centre of edges\[~=\frac{1}{4}\times 12=3\] Na-atoms at the centre of the cube = 1 \[W:O:Na=1:3:1\] Hence, formula \[=NaW{{O}_{3}}\]
