Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

Explanation:

The A ions are in the body center position and at each corner .

There are 8 faces of the cube and 1 corner is also shared by another 7 cubic unit.

Then number of A ion in a cubic unit = 1+\frac{1}{8}\times 8=2

The Z ions are on each face of the cubic unit :

There are 6 faces of the cube and 1 face is shared by another cubic unit.

Then number of Z ions in a cubic unit = \frac{1}{2}\times 6=3

The structural formula of the cubic lattice is  =A_2Z_3

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

Please I don’t get this at all someone help
ohaa [14]
I think it’s 7.41 because you count up all the atoms and find out how many are x (the large grey ones) and you do 2/27 x 100 which gives you 7.41 :) (sorry if i counted wrong it’s kinda hard)
