What is the C.N of Cl^(-) ions in NaCl crystals ?

Assertion: In the body centred cubic structure of CsCl the arrangement of Cl^(-) ions is primitive Reason: In CsCl, the Cs^(+) ion remains at the body centred position and Cl^(-) ions at the corners.

The well know mineral flourite is chemically calcium fluoride. It is a well known fact that in one unit cell of this mineral, there are four Ca^(2+) ions and eight F^(-) ions and Ca^(2+) ions are arranged in f.c.c. lattice. The F^(-) ions fill all the tetrahedral holes in the face centred cubic lattice of Ca^(2+) ions. The edge length of the unit cell is 5.46xx10^(-8) cm. The density of the solid is 3.18"g cm"^(-3) . Use this information to calculate Avogadro's number (Molar mass of CaF_(2)=78.0"g mol"^(-1) )

In NaCl crystal the Cl^(-) ions are in f.c.c. arrangement. Calculate the number of Cl^(-) ions in unit cell.

NaCl crystal possesses a crystal structure having face-centred cubic unit cell. If the radii of Na^(+)andCl^(-) ions are 95 and 181 pm, respectively, then the edge length of its unit cell is-

A unit call of NaCl has four formula units. In NaCl crystal, radius ratio (r_(+)//r_(-)) is 0.69 and edge-length of the unit cell is twice the sum of the radii of Na^(+)andCl^(-) ions. If the radius of Na^(+) is 116 pm then find the density of NaCl crystal. Formula mass of NaCl = 58.5g*mol^(-1) .
