The empirical formula for a compound with a cubic close packed arrangement of anions and with cations occupying all the octahedral sites in AxB.{A}_{x}B . The value of xx is (Integer answer)

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

In AxB{A}_{x}B
Effective number of BB atoms =4= 4 (in CCP)
Effective number of AA atoms =4= 4 (all O.V.)
So formula of the compound =A4B4=AB= {A}_{4}{B}_{4} = AB
So x=1x = 1
