Q. Octahedral void at edge center in ccp arrangement is equally distributed amongst
(1) 8 unit cells
(2) 6 unit cells
(3) 4 unit cells
(4) 2 unit cells
Dear Student,
An octahedral void if present at the edge centre will be distributed equally amongst 4 other unit cells.
So, correct answer is (3).
This void will be shared with an adjacent unit cell and two unit cells above it.
