Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the coordination number of each type of ion in a rock-salt type crystal structure, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure**: - The rock-salt structure is commonly represented by sodium chloride (NaCl). In this structure, sodium ions (Na⁺) and chloride ions (Cl⁻) are arranged in a specific manner. 2. **Understand Coordination Number**: ...

NaCl is a AB type of solid . Its crystalline structure is known as rock salt structure in which r_"Na"^+ and r_"Cl"^- are 95 and 181 pm respectively , where Cl^- is present at the lattice point of face centered cubic unit cell Na^+ ions are located in void and those compounds which have same crystalline structure also have same coordination system in which Na^+ and Cl^- ions are surrounded by certain number of opposite ions respectively. Under high pressure coordination number changes to 8 :8 type from 6 :6 type.
