How many octahedral voids are there in 1 mole of a compound having cubic closed packed structure?
How many octahedral voids are there in 1 mole of a compound having cubic closed packed structure?

Ans: In a unit cell, four octahedral voids are essentially present. Each element has four atoms in a cell.
Number of unit cells =\frac{1 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}}{4}
Number of octahedral voids =\frac{6.023 \times 10^{23}}{4} \times 4=6.023 \times 10^{23}
