The correct Answer is:
To determine the coordination number of \( \text{Ti}^+ \) in \( \text{TiCl} \), which has a structure similar to \( \text{CsCl} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Structure of CsCl**: - CsCl crystallizes in a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure. In this structure, there are 8 atoms located at the corners of the cube and 1 atom at the center of the cube. 2. **Identify the Position of Atoms**: - In the case of CsCl, the cesium ion (\( \text{Cs}^+ \)) is located at the body center, while the chloride ions (\( \text{Cl}^- \)) occupy the corners of the cube. 3. **Apply the Same Structure to TiCl**: - Since \( \text{TiCl} \) has a similar structure to \( \text{CsCl} \), we can infer that \( \text{Ti}^+ \) will occupy the body center of the cube and the \( \text{Cl}^- \) ions will be at the corners. 4. **Determine the Coordination Number**: - The coordination number is defined as the number of nearest neighboring atoms surrounding a central atom. In this case, the \( \text{Ti}^+ \) ion is surrounded by the 8 \( \text{Cl}^- \) ions located at the corners of the cube. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the coordination number of \( \text{Ti}^+ \) in \( \text{TiCl} \) is 8. ### Final Answer: The coordination number of \( \text{Ti}^+ \) in \( \text{TiCl} \) is **8**. ---
