If silver iodide crystallizes in a zinc blende structure with I- ions forming the lattice then calculate fraction of the tetrahedral voids occupied by Ag+ ions.
In AgI, if there are nI
-
ions, there will be nAg
+
ions. As I
-
ions form the lattice, number of tetrahedral voids = 2n. As there are nAg
+
ions to occupy these voids, therefore fraction of tetrahedral voids occupied by Ag
+
ions = n/2n = ½ = 50%.
