4@Nishant Sir : I got the statement to be true that way but if the formula is coming
out as K3C60 can v say that it's simplest formula is KC20 ???????
STATEMENT-1 : Simplest formula of a CCP unit cell of Buckminster fullerenes in which all the T-voids and O-voids are occupied by K is K3C60.
and
STATEMENT-2 : Simplest formula is KC20.
1. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1
2. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1
3. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
4. Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True

62In a ccp figure out the number of octahedral voids and tetrahedral voids...
Then try to solve some more :)
4
4@msp : Fullerene has 4 C60 units at all corners & faces
12K r present in all tetrahedral & octahedral voids
So formula is K3C60
62With my limited knowledge.. I wud stick my head to say the simplest formula will be KC20
