A atoms are at 8 corners of the cube No. of A atoms per unit cell = 8
= 1 B atoms are at the face centre of six faces. No. of B atoms per unit cell = 6
= 3 Thus, formula of compound = AB 3

Frenkel defect is favoured in those ionic compounds in which there is large difference in the size of cations and anions.
Non-stoichiometric defects due to metal deficiency is shown by FexO where x = 0.93 to 0.96.
No. of atoms in the corners
No. of atoms at face centers
Formula is
or
Packing fraction is defined as the ratio of the volume of the unit cell that is occupied by the spheres to the volume of the unit cell.
P.F. for cpp and bcc are
and
respectively. So, the free space in ccp and bcc are
&
respectively.
Since AgBr has intermediate radius ratio.
AgBr shows both, Frenkel as well as Schottky defects.
ZnS only shows Frenkel defects.
KBr, CsCl only shows Schottky defects.
No of moles formed = 10-3
= 10-5 No of molecules formed = 10-5 NA In unimolecular layer formation each cube occupy an area = a2 Total area occupied = 10-5 NA a2 According to the question, 10-5 NA a2 = 0.24 10-5 6 1023 a2 = 0.24 a2 = 4 10-20 a = 2 10-10 cm = 2 pm
has body centered type structure in which occupies at corner of a cube and occupies the centre of the cube. (where a is the edge length of the cube)
In a face-centered cubic (FCC) unit cell, atoms are present at the corners as well as at the centers of the faces.
Hence, the diagonal of the face of the unit cell is equal to 4 times the radius of an atom.
This gives us the equation:
Which simplifies to:
In a body-centered cubic (BCC) unit cell, atoms are present at the corners and at the center of the unit cell.
The body diagonal of the unit cell is equal to 4 times the radius of an atom.
This gives us the equation:
Which simplifies to:
Therefore, Option D is correct:
and
