In a $BCC$ lattice containing $X$ and $Y$ type of atoms, $X$ type of atoms are present at the corners and $Y$ type of atoms are present at the body center. In its unit cell, if three atoms are missing from the corners, the formula of the compound is:

  • A
    $X_5 Y_8$
  • B
    $X_8 Y_5$
  • C
    $X_3 Y_5$
  • D
    $X_5 Y_3$
