The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the radius ratio \( \frac{r_{+}}{r_{-}} \) for the cesium chloride (CsCl) structure, where \( r_{+} \) is the radius of the cation and \( r_{-} \) is the radius of the anion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Structure**: - CsCl has a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure. - The anions are located at the corners of the cube, and the cation is located at the center. 2. **Finding the Distance Between Anions**: - The distance between two opposite corner anions (let's say A and B) can be calculated using the body diagonal of the cube. - The body diagonal \( d \) of a cube with edge length \( a \) is given by: \[ d = \sqrt{3}a \] 3. **Relation of Distances**: - In the CsCl structure, the distance between the centers of the anions (corner anions) is equal to the distance from the center of the cation to the center of a corner anion plus the distance from the center of the cation to the center of the opposite corner anion. - This can be expressed as: \[ d = 2r_{-} + 2r_{+} \] - Therefore, we can write: \[ \sqrt{3}a = 2r_{-} + 2r_{+} \] 4. **Finding the Edge Length**: - For the CsCl structure, the edge length \( a \) can be expressed in terms of the radii: \[ a = 2r_{-} \] - Substituting this into the equation for \( d \): \[ \sqrt{3}(2r_{-}) = 2r_{-} + 2r_{+} \] 5. **Simplifying the Equation**: - Dividing the entire equation by 2: \[ \sqrt{3}r_{-} = r_{-} + r_{+} \] - Rearranging gives: \[ r_{+} = \sqrt{3}r_{-} - r_{-} = (\sqrt{3} - 1)r_{-} \] 6. **Finding the Radius Ratio**: - The radius ratio \( \frac{r_{+}}{r_{-}} \) can now be calculated: \[ \frac{r_{+}}{r_{-}} = \frac{(\sqrt{3} - 1)r_{-}}{r_{-}} = \sqrt{3} - 1 \] - Evaluating \( \sqrt{3} \): \[ \sqrt{3} \approx 1.732 \] - Thus: \[ \frac{r_{+}}{r_{-}} \approx 1.732 - 1 = 0.732 \] ### Conclusion: The radius ratio \( \frac{r_{+}}{r_{-}} \) for the CsCl structure is approximately **0.732**.
