    A substance\[{{A}_{x}}{{B}_{y}}\]crystallises in a face centred cubic lattice in which A atom occupies each corner of cube and atom B occupies the centres of each face of the cube. Identify the correct composition of the substance\[{{A}_{x}}{{B}_{y}}\]

    A) \[A{{B}_{3}}\]

    B) \[{{A}_{4}}{{B}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[{{A}_{3}}B\]

    D)  composition cannot be specified

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Number of atoms of A per unit cell\[=8\times \frac{1}{8}=1\] Number of atoms of B per unit cell\[=6\times \frac{1}{2}=3\] Hence, the composition of\[{{A}_{X}}{{B}_{Y}}=A{{B}_{3}}\]
