QuestionSolid state / ZnS structures
In ZnS crystal lattice, S²⁻ ions form two different close-packed arrays in which Zn²⁺ occupies tetrahedral holes. Two structures adopted by ZnS will be :
- (a) Zinc Blende (ccp), Wurtzrite (hcp)
- (b) Zinc Blende (ccp), Wurtzrite (bcc)
- (c) Zinc Blende (bcc), Wurtzrite (hcp)
- (d) Zinc Blende (ccp), Wurtzrite (fcc)
