A solid material consists of an array of A atoms with Z atoms located in the spaces in the lattice.This solid would be classified as
A)an amalgam
B)an interstitial alloy
C)a substitutional alloy
D)a semiconductor
E)ceramic

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An interstitial alloy is a type of alloy where smaller atoms fit into the interstitial spaces (voids) in the lattice of larger atoms. In this case, the array of A atoms represents the larger atoms, and the Z atoms are located in the interstitial spaces, making it an interstitial alloy. The other options do not accurately describe the composition of the solid.
