Solution

The correct option is C $X_{2} Z$
The atoms $Z$ are in CCP arrangement while the atoms $X$ occupy all the tetrahedral sites. The number of tetrahedral sites is twice the number of atoms present in CCP arrangement. Thus, for each $Z$ atom, $2 X$ atoms are present. The formula of the compound is $X_{2} Z$ .
