Q. A body-centred cubic lattice is made-up of two types of atoms, $A$ and $B$ in which $A$ occupy the body-centre, while $B$ is at the corners. Due to some imperfections in the solid, one corner is left unoccupied per unit cell and formula of the solid is $A_{x} B_{y}$. Here $x$ is

Solution:

$A _{7 / 8} B \Rightarrow A _{7} B _{8}$
