In which of the following structures coordination number for cations and anions in the packed structure will be same?

(i) Cl ion form fcc lattice and Na+ ions occupy all octahedral voids of the unit cell.

(ii) Ca2+ ions form fcc lattice and F ions occupy all the eight tetrahedral voids of the unit cell.

(iii) O2– ions form fcc lattice and Na+ ions occupy all the eight tetrahedral voids of the unit cell.

(iv) S2– ions form fcc lattice and Zn2+ ions go into alternate tetrahedral voids of the unit cell.
