    An \[A{{B}_{2}}\] type of structure is present in:

    A)  \[NaCl\]             

    B)         \[{{N}_{2}}O\]

    C)  \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]                 

    D)         \[Ca{{F}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[Ca{{F}_{2}}\] is an example of \[A{{B}_{2}}\] type solid \[A{{B}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons {{A}^{2+}}+2{{B}^{-}}\] \[Ca{{F}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons C{{a}^{2+}}+2{{F}^{-}}\] Atoms A are arranged in cubic closed packing (ccp). Atom B occupy all the octahedral voids and half tetrahedral voids.
