A compound is formed by elements A and B. This crystallises in the cubic structure where the A atoms are at the corers of the cube and B atoms are at the body centres. The simplest formula of the compound is

• AB

• A₆B

• A₈B₄

• AB₆

A compound of 'A' and 'B' crystallises in a cubic lattice in which 'A' atoms occupy the lattice points at the corners of the cube. The 'B' atoms occupy the centre of each face of the cube. The probable empirical formula of the compound is
