उत्तर
(ii) 8
(iii) twice the number of octahedral voids.
Explanation:
NaCl has fee arrangement of CF ions. Thus,
Number of CF ions in packing per unit cell = 4
Number of tetrahedral voids = 2 × No. of particles present in close packing = 2 × 4 = 8
Number of tetrahedral voids = 2 × No. of octahedral voids
