Solution
The correct option is C
i, ii
& iii
Since tetrahedral holes are surrounded by 4 nearest neighbours. So, the C.N. of cation occupying tetrahedral hole is 4. Since octahedral hole is surrounded by six nearest neighbours, so, C.N. of cation occupying octahedral is 6.
In schottky a pair of anion and cation leaves the lattice, so density of lattice decreases.
