Which of the following is not true about the ionic solids?
A
Bigger ions form the close packed structure.
B
Smaller ions occupy either the tetrahedral or the octahedral voids depending upon their size.
C
Occupations of all the voids is not necessary.
D
The fractions of octahedral or tetrahedral voids occupied depends upon the radii of the ions occupying the voids.
Answer
The fractions of octahedral or tetrahedral voids occupied depends upon the radii of the ions occupying the voids.
Explanation
Solution
Number of tetrahedral voids are always double than octahedral voids.
