To solve the problem of finding the distance of closest approach between \( A^{+} \) and \( B^{-} \) ions in a solid \( AB \) with a CsCl-type structure, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Structure In a CsCl-type structure: - The \( B^{-} \) ions (let's assume these are \( Cl^{-} \) ions) are located at the corners of the cube. - The \( A^{+} \) ions (let's assume these are \( Cs^{+} \) ions) are located at the body center of the cube. ### Step 2: Identify the Unit Cell Edge Length ...
