Atoms of element X form hcp lattice and those of element Y occupy 2 3 of its tetrahedral voids. The percentage of element X in the lattice is (Nearest integer)
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Number of effective atoms in HCP lattice is =6 Number of atoms of X = 6 Number of T.V. in h.c.p. = 12   2 × Number   of   atoms Number of Y atoms = 2 3 × 12 = 8 atoms. % of X = 6 14 × 100 = 42 . 86 % Round off to the nearest integer = 43
