A neutron diffraction and magnetic susceptibility study is made of the ordering of carbon atoms and vacancies in nonstoichiometric tantalum carbide TaCy. The magnetic susceptibility of tantalum carbide is found to decrease when this compound passes into an ordered state. From experimental magnetic susceptibility data, the short-range order parameters are calculated of the non-metallic sublattice of ordered tantalum carbide.
