Which among the following crystal lattices occupies all of the cubic holes by cations?
Options
- ASrCl ₂
- BCaF ₂
- CCsCl
- DUO ₂
Correct answer
C. CsCl
Step-by-step solution
CsCl Cations inhabited all of the cubic holes in CsCl crystal lattices. A single atom in the cube's centre belongs to this unit cell, and the unit cell has only one body centre. As a result, the compound's formula is CsCl , which stands for body-centred cubic cell. Particles are present in the corners of the cube, as well as one particle in the centre of the body, in this sort of cell.
