 The ionic radii of A+and Bare 1.7Å and 1.8Å respectively. Find the co-ordination number of A+

Moderate
Solution

rA+rB=1.71.8=0.944

Bare at corner of cube A+at body centre 

 C.No. of A+=8

Radius ratio of a solid lies in the range (0.414 — 0.732). Its  coordination number and corresponding solid willbea)6, TiO2b)8, CsClc)6,  NaCld)4, TiO2Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer? |
